Official State Flag of Colorado
The Colorado state flag consists of three equally sized stripes; the outer stripes are the same color blue as the national flag, separated by a white center stripe. There is a large semi-circular "C" on the flag, which is the same shade of red as the U.S. national flag. In the opening of the letter "C" there is a gold disc. All State Flags
