Flag of the Principality of Albania
A 2012 auction in Genoa, Italy unveiled for the first time the flag of the principality, physically intact, displayed inside a square laminated wooden frame with the descriptive title shown at the bottom in golden letters embossed onto a black coated strip. The flag which was found in Durrës on 20 December 1915, had been taken from there by Italian diplomat Baron Carlo Aliotti aboard the Austrian destroyer SMS Lika. A similarly identical flag that matches the shapes and overall contortion of Aliotti's flag is preserved at the National History Museum in Tirana. (source)
