In GC and FE1 (→FE2→FE3→FE5) there is no  before the 1st note in the R.H. This patent, from the harmonic point of view, mistake was corrected in GE, EE and FE4 (in the case of the last two editions, Chopin's proofreading cannot be excluded). A natural was added in FES too.

The absence of the  returning a is undoubtedly an oversight of Chopin in [A] (→GC,FE1→FE2→FE3→FE4). In the remaining editions the sign was completed, it was also added in FES.

No markings in GC (→GE1) & FE1 (→FE2→EE,FE3→FE4)

Pedalling in FE5 & GE2mar (→GE2)

Pedalling suggested by the editors
..

No pedal in the 1st half of the bar must be considered to be Chopin's oversight – in the entire middle section of Marche, the harmonic pedalling is meticulously marked. A similar conclusion was reached by the revisers of FE5 and GE2mar (→GE2).

Crotchet b in GC (→GE)

Dotted quaver in FE (→EE)
..

The version of FE (→EE) is probably a result of a misunderstanding of [A] – see bar 5.

Chord in GC (→GE) & FE2 (→EE,FE3→FE4,FE5)

Octave in FE1
..

FE1 overlooked the middle notes of the chord in the R.H. on the 3rd beat of the bar. The mistake was corrected already in FE2. See also the next note.
