The concerted fingering of FEH and EE most probably corresponds to the Chopinesque one, which is confirmed by the entry in FED. See also the note to bar 410. In comparison, the differing fingering of FEFo stands out, written actually rather by the pupil than by Chopin. It does not exclude its possible authenticity, yet in the main text we take into account the remaining entries – FED and the three digits of FEH that may have been written by Chopin.
