A design in three circles within a larger circle which is covered with a shading of zigzag lines. In each inset circle is the figure of a man. Above, a man walks rapidly from left to right, a large stick under his arm, his face half-concealed in a blanket or covering worn as a cloak. His dishevelled hair is full of straw and he looks suspiciously over his right shoulder. Beneath the circle is engraved the word "Mad".
<p><br>In the lower (right) circle a man in profile to the right leans back in a chair asleep, his head sunk on his breast. Beneath the circle is engraved "Asleep".
<br>On the right of this is a circle in which a man walks staggering and bent, his head a featureless blank.  Beneath is engraved "Drunk".  10 February 1780
