If one were to use artistic merit and beauty as opinion makers, then certainly the historical elephant based flags win out.

 I am not big on flags, but the current naval ensign at least preserves the traditional elephant. I see the 1916 flag as a dignified work of art that conveys so much more than lines of colour typical of national flags. It really stands out and is unique. The old Thai flags were awesome.

Totally agree. 

This medal was also made by the Thai Navy for an archery event they organized. 

It's pretty cool. It even spins...
