  b. 455

In A the only accidental before the 1st chord in the R.H. is the cautionary  before e2. From the musical point of view, the version with dwould be possible, yet a comparison with analogous bar 425 and a  of d3 added – probably by Chopin – already in GE1 (→FEEE, →GE2) prove Chopin's mistake. Chopin committed the same mistake in a similar context in bar 423.
In the main text we omit the unjustified  before e2.
