Description of the flag

A skull over an unidentified bone with a heart at the fly and an unidentified object at the hoist.

Should be a "Deaths Head", as noted in the Boston Newsletter in June 1718.

In Charles Johnson's History of the Pirates (1724), Bonnet is pictured with a flag flying the skull and crossbones.
