Zeljko posted recently the colonial flag of Belize.

In the zone existed another two British colonies. The Protected Kingdon of the Moquitos (today Miskitos), and the colony of Bay Islands (today Hondurian province). Did there exist a flags for the two territories?.

answer:

Both were given up before the 1864 Order-in-Council that permitted colonies to have ensigns with flag badges - Mosquito Coast in 1860 to Nicaragua and the Bay Islands in 1859 to Honduras.
