The most famous cipher of Mary, Queen of Scots, is the one she used in her fatal correspondence with Anthony Babington, in what is known as the Babington Plot. Some pupular books even discuss Mary's cipher as if all her ciphers are like this. It should be remembered that this is only one of the simplest kind among more than a hundred ciphers Mary used with various people at various times.
I now added a section for this famous cipher in "Ciphers of Mary, Queen of Scots". It presents images based on Wikimedia Commons and describes only minimal facts.
