The Order of Baleci Secret Multi-Use Challenge Coins
Introducing a Novel Way to Encrypt and Stack Your Challenge coins: The Stackable Cipher Coins- You can use these coins to code and encode messages, as per the directions below!
At first glance, these coins appear as ordinary coins, crafted with intricate designs and durable materials. However, their true brilliance lies within their stackability and their dual function as tools for encoding and decoding messages.
These coins not only hold inherent value but also serve as miniature keys to unlock encoded messages, employing the age-old Caesar’s Cipher technique.
Each coin features a unique alphanumeric symbol engraved along its circumference, corresponding to a specific shift in the Caesar’s Cipher. When stacked in a particular order, these coins align to create a shifting cipher wheel. Rotating the stack rearranges the symbols, creating an ever-changing encryption system.
Here’s a video showing how the cipher wheel is used:
The process is elegantly simple: one aligns the desired message with a chosen starting point on the stack, and by rotating the coins accordingly, the letters are encrypted. Each rotation represents a shift in the Caesar’s Cipher, enabling users to encode messages swiftly and securely.
Stackable Cipher Coins offer a myriad of practical applications. From personalized secret communications among trusted parties to educational tools for teaching encryption principles, the versatility of these coins extends far beyond their tangible value.
Imagine the excitement of a treasure hunt where clues are encoded using these coins, requiring participants to decipher the message by manipulating the stack. Or perhaps, in the realm of finance, these coins could represent a tangible, encrypted form of currency, adding an extra layer of security to transactions.
