Don't just take my word on it
So here is what I found on the 'flag' business:

Quote:
Logo Design Elements
The 1993 BSP seal shown on the coin contains these core symbols:
Philippine Flag: Symbolizes national unity and patriotism.
Risen Sun: Represents a bright future and a renewed national spirit.
Mountains: Depicts stability and permanence.
Gear: Signifies industry, movement, and economic progress.
Year "1993": Marks the year the modern central bank was established.


Quote:
Adopted in 1993, the original seal consisted of a stylized representation of the sun hovering over mountain ranges and above the Philippine flag which was framed by a wheel. Former Prime Minister Cesar E. A. Virata, however, noted that the Philippine flag was incorrectly displayed as it was depicted below the sun and the mountain ranges. It violated the provisions of the Flag and Heraldic Code of the Philippines, which states that the Philippine flag should never be displayed under any picture and shall always be hoisted aloft.

Ah, I was looking for a blip on the hillside.

That is a very small part of the flag. I blinked and I missed it.

yeah, I didn't get it right away at first either.

That small part serves as the Jack, just like our field of blue and stars is our Union Jack
