Page 2 of the very first PDF that Petr posted up has the cipher used to get messages to/from the Milanese envoy in Florence - that's the page which I described in my "quick-start" email of:-

Page 6 of the same PDF also has the cipher for Tristano Sforza ["Sfortia"]. I find this incredibly interesting as it codes "c" as "4" and "s" as a ligatured "4o"... which is the only verbose pair in the base [ie purely alphabetic] cipher (though there are plenty in the same cipher's nomenclatura).

Beyond that, just feel free to browse as the whim takes you. :-)

Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....
