b. 250

composition: Op. 49, Fantaisie in F minor

c2 & e2 in A (#→GE) & FE2 (→EE)

b1 & c2 in FE1
..

FE2 restored – perhaps at Chopin's request – the version of the bottom notes of the first two quavers as it was in A, which is an argument that the FE1 text is almost certainly a double mistake by the engraver.

b. 251

composition: Op. 11, Concerto in E minor, Mvt I

c in FE (→EE)

A in GE
..

There is no indication that the version of GE could be possibly authentic – a comparison with analogous bars 227, 235 and 586 proves that it must be an example of a Terzverschreibung error.

b. 252

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

e1-a1 in A (→GE)

c1-a1 in FE (→EE)
..

The c1-a1 sixth is most probably a mistake of the engraver of FE (→EE). It is difficult to assume that Chopin would like to replace the sequence of three voices of the accompaniment, compliant with all rules, with a parallel shift of chords, sounding worse.

b. 254

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

As the 1st note in the L.H. FE1 has the erroneous f2. That obvious mistake was corrected in FE2.

b. 255

composition: Op. 19, Bolero

..

FE (→GE,EE) has a c2 as the 2nd semiquaver. It is a typical Terzverschreibung error of the engraver (or perhaps of Chopin in the Stichvorlage for FE). Chopin corrected the erroneous note in pencil in FES.
