The Sol de Mayo has a longer history than the flag it sits on. It first appeared on the first Argentine coin, struck in 1813, before it was ever put on a banner — which is why it is drawn as a struck emblem rather than a printed motif, with a modelled human face and thirty-two rays alternating between straight and wavy. The face is Inti, the sun god of the Inca, and the sun as a whole commemorates the May Revolution of 1810.
Mounting that on a shield leans into the coin-like quality. The gold border is heavy and rounded, the shoulders curve out before drawing in to a soft point, and the flag inside is cropped by the shape so the celeste bands taper toward the base while the sun holds the widest part.
Manuel Belgrano created the banded flag in 1812 and the sun was added to the state version in 1818; the plain flag without it is still flown as the civil flag.
