Enigma

[Cappy Z.]

its words not letters - 10 = difficulty -- you want me to solve the third beale code for you -- you sly dog -- the exact location of the beale treasure --- its worth $ 63 million by todays standards

Ahhh...50% grasshopper....so close!

Looks like cappy is trying to get ivan to solve the Beale code for him. This is obviously based on a document, book, or song. Frank

The gem looks like a douse. That is 1, of a pair of dice. LOL. Looks like #4 up.

Lab created Sapphires like this are going for $25. This is a real sapphire that was heated and treated to bring out the color. It's not a treasure chest..but a stone any woman would love to have...

with a value of $63 million dollars --- its worth a BIT OF EFFORT -- LOL

A BEALE CODE IS A DOCUMENT / BOOK TYPE CODE (cypher text) * one must know which document / BOOK was used --and which "word" in the document was assigned which number in order to decode it properly .

the beale code has existed since 1819 (almost 200 years ago)- currently to date as far as i know no one has "unlocked" its secerts that i know of .

[Frankn]

Ivan, if i'm not mistaken, the beale code is actually 3 documents. One has been decoded. I think it's KEY was the Decoration of Independance, or the Constitution. Frank

Frankn is the keener wiener...

Yup, Looks like Frank wins the chocolate-covered Hot Dog. BTW, the sapphire is my birthstone.

...can he solve the enigma?

Most of the code is superfluos. It's the same 17 character, non-repetitive string repeated 9 times.

I'm thinking multiple isograms.

80% and now ? 8)

D - - - - - - - - T - Y - - - - - , D

25. = Y
406. = D
329.= T

Not that this will help much..but the code has nothing to do with any mathematics or WWII submarine machine. It is...

Well, since it's only 17 characters and none repeat.... along with the fact that that there is zero math involved so it's a straight transposition; #=letter.

It's impossible to decypher without a pure brute force attack of guessing random letters for the unknowns. It's also unknown if the spaces have been removed or if they are represented. That also means there are millions of possible "solutions".

HI Jason: shucks, we only need one

Surely even an average MENSA member could solve this for a beautiful sapphire for his lady?

addendum: It is not an isogram. It is a simple cypher-text. One number = one letter. The message is repeated. Solve this: 406.505.602.400.693.474.531.506.329.309.614.25.19 0.10.1029.446.344

[ivan salis]

one beale code (the second one of the three) was solved (they think ) -- there are 3 "beale
codes" in total --one for each the 3 differant pages of code.

It appears you want to help others solve this before you do?

[ivan salis]

not 2 worried about that ==lol --its not as easy as they think it is.

I gave up on the Beale codes years ago after I took them to a friend that worked on a top secret code breaking computer and it failed. He said the only way to break it was to guess the right key document it was based on.
The one that has been broken took a person years of guessing key documents that were around at the time of the event. Frank
