Coffers

I'm not sure either, but I always thought coffer meant the same thing as a chest you keep money in?

 

If you look up "coffer," there's some architectural definitions, and then for chests you get things like this:

By strict definition, a coffer is a travelling trunk which is banded by metalwork and covered with leather or other material. However, the word tends to be used to describe various kinds of chests without drawers.

 

A joined and panelled low chest, usually of oak, with a lid.

 

now used for any chest with a lid on top, once used for a travelling trunk

Hmm, interesting. Not sure why you'd be requested to log in. I wasn't logged into anything ~

 

As for coffer, yes, they seeme to be smaller, sometimes more ornate or delicate chests. Like overgrown jewelry boxes, in some respects.

 

I always thought coffers were like money purses or something. Oops!!!

Maybe the link is broken? I just tried it again and I always get an error telling me to log in first before accessing that link. Might also be that you have to browse through the main site and it gives you a temporary cookie which doesn't work when going directly to the link?

Strange. I've double-checked the links three times now, including just now after clearing my cookies and temporary internet files. No issues here. Oh well, I just searched Google Images for "coffers" to find these. If you're curious to see more, try doing that.

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
