One of 250 Nazi 'Enigma' code machines thought to be in existence is up for auction this weekend.
One of the legendary Nazi cipher machines used by Adolf Hitler’s military when they tried to take over the world is coming up for auction this weekend and is expected to fetch about $100,000.
The “Enigma” code devices were at the heart of the Third Reich’s secret communications as its vast military network fanned out across Europe and beyond. The “Enigma” machines, developed in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s, were considered engineering and cryptographic masterpieces, especially in an era before modern computing. “It was extraordinarily complicated, even for today,” says Houghton of the code. “Trying to break the machine using pencil and paper [so-called “brute force”] would take lifetimes.”
