    yellow and white, with a coat of arms
    The coat of arms consists of a blazon and external ornaments:
    - the blazon contains following colors:
    gold (yellow), red, brown, black, white (eye)
    - the external ornaments contains following colors:
    gold (yellow), red, black, silver, white


    1) Vatican City uses at the moment following three flags:
    - National flag and State flag (National flag and civil ensign): "Two fields divided vertically, yellow field on the staff side and a white field on the other side, which bears the tiara and the keys"
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Flag_of_the_Vatican_City.svg

    - Papal flags (Papal pennant): "With a yellow band at the hoist and Pope Benedict's personal arms in color in the white fly."
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Papal_pennant.JPG

    - Military flag (Swiss Guard): "Papal guard flag of 1914, but with Benedict XVI's arms."

    2) "The coat of arms of Pope Benedict XVI was designed by then Archbishop Andrea Cordero Lanza di Montezemolo (who later was created a Cardinal) soon after the papal election. The coat of arms consists of a shield and external ornaments."

    "The blazon (the written description, in terminology peculiar to heraldry, of the contents of the coat of arms) given on the Vatican website is as follows:

    Gules, chapé in or, with the scallop shell of the second; the dexter chape with a moor's head in natural colour, crowned and collared of the first, the sinister chape a bear trippant in natural colour, carrying a pack gules belted sable.
    This means, in non-technical English:

    A red shield mantled in gold and with a gold scallop shell; the right (for the bearer of the shield, the left for the viewer) part of the mantle has a moor's head in its natural colour (brown) wearing a red crown and red collar; the left part of the mantle has a walking bear in its natural colour (brown) carrying a red pack tied with black bands. "

    This is the flag of Vatican City. I don't know if it's the same as the papal flag. It's all I could find.

    I belive that the papal flag is gold and white. There may be some other colors mixed in as well.
