Framed International Code of Signals November (N) maritime signal flag, professionally mounted within a shadow box display. Constructed of blue and red linen in two horizontal fields, the flag retains its original canvas hoist, rope lanyard, and wooden toggle. International Code of Signals flags were used extensively aboard naval and merchant vessels to communicate standardized operational and navigational messages before the widespread adoption of radio communications, and they continue to serve as an internationally recognized maritime signaling system.

When flown alone, the November (N) flag means "No" (Negative). It is used as a clear negative response to a previously transmitted question or signal. When combined with other signal flags, it can also form part of more complex coded communications, including the internationally recognized NC distress signal. Its simple yet distinctive design and enduring role in maritime communication make it an excellent addition to any collection of naval or nautical memorabilia.
