Default C3 center caps?

Are these C3 center caps? I am trying to research them. Made in Taiwan, so I'm not sure they are OEM. Any insight would be appreciated. I plan on listing them for sale.

No, they're not even the correct crossed-flag emblem.

Thank you for the information. So I'm guessing these are just something to swap out of a different year and wheel.

I don't know what those flags are for, but they're not a Corvette.
The red flag from C1 to C8 always has a bowtie on it & it's never been checkered...
