Today, the flag of the state of New Hampshire flies in commemoration of the state’s ratification of the Constitution on June 21, 1788. According to the New Hampshire Almanac, “The body or field shall be blue and shall bear upon its center in suitable proportion and colors a representation of the state seal. The seal shall be surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves with nine stars interspersed.” The flag was officially adopted in 1909.
I purchased this flag at the New Hampshire State Capitol in 2003.
