The former Sultanate of Banjarmasin has now been restored as BANJAR SULTANATE
(locally "KESULTANAN BANJAR" ). Their State Flag is yellow over black in a
horizontal bicolour.

A scan of the Personal Standard of the Sultan of Banjar with his Coat of Arms.
I have yet to draw this Standard, which is yellow (not golden-yellow) with a
gold frill, the details of the shield from the Arms are shown (without the
yellow edged disk, lions & shield itself) in the centre of the standard, (in the
central shield -from the Arms- a device with a gold kris, an Indonesian flag is
attached to the tip of the kris, a white rising sun with 5 golden rays on each
side of the raised kris.
The central Arms on the Banjar Standard has only 4 rays (of the sun) on each
side (not 5), also there is a gold wing (or something resembling a wing) just
below the last ray. The central motif seems to be an arm & hand clutching the
golden kris.

Banjar (Banjarmasin) Royal Arms & flag
The flag is in yellow with the
emblem (a gold Chinese dragon affrontee an upright sword with the Indonesian bicolour attached, to the top left are two 5-pointed stars reversed (one
point downwards) & to the right is a crescent, both gold. Eight gold "pajong"
(4 on each side), the last on each row has a crescent at the top (the
bottom one of each row). Supporters: Two gold pegasus'. Compartment, a gold
mountain ridge, below this are 2 gold "lines", below the compartement is a
gold Jawi inscription).
This emblem is in the centre of the flag, which
is larger than shown in the colour photo, & must date to 1860 when the
Sultanate was abolished by the Dutch.

The current Royal Arms show the
central emblem of the flag in their shield (minus the Jawi inscription above,
& the Jawi date 1421 A.H. (A.D. 2000/2001) below.
Written on the
scan provided by John is:
The flag and achievement for the inauguration of
the Raja of Banjar Sultanate (2005) may be an indication that the Islamic
system was used indeed. On the other hand it contains some symbols that are
difficult to interpret as they seem to originate from a Chinese system of
symbols. It would be interesting to know more about the time and manner of
creation of these emblems.
