This is an incorrect version of the Añasco flag. The ends of the cross should be floreteada - not arrows.[1] --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 02:30, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See this template: it is a photograph of the Añasco symbols on a rockwall at the town/ municipio entrance. --The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 13:19, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here is another template. It's what is seen at the city's / municipio's entrance.--The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 14:15, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@The Eloquent Peasant: On the back of the sign (this other Street View) you can better appreciate the design of the flag's flowered cross. The correction I made to the flag is closer to reality. Yarfpr (talk) 17:33, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yarfpr: Thank you for fixing the ends of the cross and they are CORRECT. I say correct because the ends of the cross in your version of 3 October shows a
cruz floreteada
as described on lexjuris Añasco..A Yahoo or Google or Bing search of "floreteada" and images shows your file version has a floreteada cross. It is also perfilada en plata. So this one is good--The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 00:46, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Before leaving this dead horse, wanted to note that sometimes these two types of crosses: cross fleury (or flory) - floreateada and cross patonce are sometimes not distinguished in early armory. Cross fleury and cross patonce --> Cross patonce, or so the en-Wikipedia page says.[2]
