Greg,
It may sound strange but the Saxon Hussars didnt carry any kind of fanion or pennant. Neither Hottenroth in his book about the Saxon Flags nor other sources state the existence of a colour for the Saxon Hussars. It seems that was neither planed nor wanted to give them, in their role on the battlefield, a fieldsign which could be lost.
I am sorry if I could not be of greater help.
Best Wishes,
Günter
