DOUBLE “M” MMUKILTEO WA
I saw this a month ago.
Thought it was interesting
Looks like two M’s
The first one looks faded.
I thought maybe this was a fix for the “muLLkilteo

Did you buy this? I see nothing in the photo or text description that leads to the "MM". I wonder if the seller knew what they had?
It might be one of a kind.

No I didn't buy it.
It even was on the market twice.
I was going to buy it, but when I got the pictures from the seller the M was not as crisp and didn't impress me. It looked more like it was written in.
Yes I should have bought it anyway. I have a blow up picture of the flag at work. I will have to find it and post it.

When this eror was discovered HL seemed to go through a transition in fixing it. The "flat bottomed U" seemed to be the most common attempt but Sean found another weird variation. More of John's history here for the newer members.

Here is the enlarged picture I got from the seller. What you guys think.

For $25, I would have taken a chance. However, from this fuzzy picture, it looks like it might have been an MULKilteo and was hand fixed to read correctly. Looks like maybe the initial 'M' was filled in (not very good) and the other letters were modified so the 'UL' became 'MU'.
Just a possibility.
