"Vestris fils, as in BMSat 5905, on the same stage, is dancing in a similar pose, poised on his right toe, his back to the audience, looking over his left shoulder smiling. In his right hand is his hat, held out as before but full of notes or bills, inconspicuously inscribed "gui, £1100", and "£20,000". In his left hand he holds out a netted purse to which is attached a label inscribed "English Guineas".
