Summary

Design in an oval. A half length portrait of Fox, leaning back with an inscrutable expression, similar to that in BMSat 6772 by the same artist. His right hand, holding a dice-box, is raised above his head. Below the title is engraved:

'Seven is the Main: Seven!
Who sets Charley any more money?'

Before the publication-line is, ' - Billy Sly [ ? Pitt], in a few days - ', but see BMSat 6778, a companion print by the same artist. 27 January 1785
