Although I have a photography of the flag, the details are not clearly visible and thus I refrain from making a gif after the photo.

The name Hüttenberg comes from the phrase "Hüt' den Berg!" (guard the mountain!); the coat of arms, granted by Emperor Friedrich III in 1492, depicts a miner defending the Erzberg. (source)
