A secret decoder ring (or secret decoder) is a device that allows one to decode a simple substitution cipher—or to encrypt a message by working in the opposite direction. As inexpensive toys, secret decoders have often been used as promotional items by retailers, as well as radio and television programs, from the 1930s through to the current day.Decoders, whether badges or rings, are an entertaining way for children to tap into a common fascination with encryption, ciphers, and secret codes, and are used to send hidden messages back and forth to one another.

  • O decodificador secreto foi um brinquedo popular entre as crianças, entre a década de 1930 e o final do século XX. Era ocasionalmente incluído como um prêmio em caixas de cereais e lanches. Há certa confusão entre decodificadores secretos e anéis decodificadores. A maior parte dos decodificadores que eram atribuídos como prêmios por rádios possuíam escalas circulares: estes eram descendentes do disco de cifra, desenvolvido no século XV por Leon Battista Alberti. Uma vez que tanto a escala alfabética de cifra quanto as letras (ou geralmente números) em textos normais eram circulares, algumas pessoas consideravam as escalas circulares como "anéis", criando a confusão. A maior parte dos prêmios eram pinos ou insígnias decodificadoras. (pt)
