I’d say that the circle inscribing the star touches the edge
of the imaginary square — at least it is so in the other
comparable construction sheets.

No hammer, sickle and star on the
reverse side.
Mark Sensen, 25 May 1997
Officially reverse looked like obverse without star and hammer-sickle.
But in fact I never saw these flags without star, hammer-sickle. Real flags
(all 15) usually were either with reverse analogous
to obverse (but with star and hammer-and-sickle near the hoist) or with
reverse = mirrored obverse.
