b. 83

composition: Op. 25 No 11, Etude in A minor

..

In GC the  indication was initially written – with the copyist's hand – further, before the 3rd beat of the bar and under the bottom stave. Chopin moved it before the first f-f1 octave, which we reproduced in the main text.

'5' in GC (→GE), FE & EE3

No fingering in EE1 (→EE2)
..

The missing last fingering numeral in EE1 (→EE2) is probably an oversight of the engraver or the copyist.

b. 85-86

composition: Op. 25 No 11, Etude in A minor

..

In GC there is no  raising d1 to d1, which is a patent oversight, corrected in GE.

In GC and GE2 (→GE3) there are unnecessary sharps in these bars: in GC before d2 at the beginning of the 3rd and 4th groups of semiquavers in bar 86, while in GE2 (→GE3) before d in the 2nd group in bar 85.
