No fingering in FC (→GE), FE & EE1

Fingering in EE2 (→EE3)

Nothing indicates that the detailed fingering of the R.H., added in EE2 (→EE3), could have come from Chopin. The digit for the 4th quaver in bar 64 is certainly erroneous; the double fingering for the 3rd quaver in bar 63 can also be a mistake.
