Interestingly, the CoA shows a scallop shell, but "mejillones" means "mussels."

Before the current symbols, another set of flag and coat of arms, as seen on Wikipedia, were in use different from the flag presented in FOTW.

Regarding the flag reported by Olivier Touzeau, 16 August 2006, I am quite sure his image reflects what was in use back then, and not just a poor rendering of the one Valentin contributed, even though it’s the same basic design. Sadly, the official website as archived as of August 2006 https://web.archive.org/web/20060701123600/http://www.mejillones.cl/ shows almost all images as broken links (because they used a “modern†way to create website links which quickly become obsolete while classic href and src links work perfectly to this day).
