At the time of the book, roughly sometime in the early 1900's, there is a reception at the governor's mansion in the province of Upper California, a part of the North American Union. Its flag is described as:

the golden apples of the sun »(…)« appeared on the green field of Upper California's provincial flag.

Referring to the golden apples of the Hesperides of Greek myth. Does someone have an idea as to what this symbol may look like: is there a set number of apples and arrangement?
Michael P. Smuda, 14 February 2001

According to Pantheon.org, the apples should be three in number, but there doesn't seem to have been any consistent convention for depicting them, at least not in antiquity. 1 over 2 is as good as any arrangement I suppose?
