It is a black square flag with silver edges, charged in centre with the German eagle in silver, realised as embroidery. I saw this flag first in German TV on occasion of the funeral of Helmut Schmidt on 23 November 2015 in Hamburg, and the same flag again in German TV on occasion of the funeral of Helmut Kohl on 1 July 2017 in Speyer.
Before there had been used German Federal Service Flags (Dienstflaggen) in square version with a black scarf at top of hoist.
