Interesting post, here in England they have TWO fully working Enigma machines left. One is at Bletchley, where it was originally used, and the other one is owned by Mick Jagger of Rolling Stones fame. Dont know where he keeps it though, he owns about 10 houses worldwide. :mrgreen:

The 3 dial machines were made commercially in Europe from 1929-1939 ,for businesses who wanted to keep transactions secret,which is where the Germans got the basic design and still turn up occasionally in Europe.
