Fingering written into FEJ, probable reading

Fingering written into FES

No fingering in A (→FE,FC→GE)

Fingering in EE

In FEJ the mark referring to the e1 crotchet is illegible. According to us, it may be a fingering digit (2), written instead of a 'one' – it would then be the same notation that can clearly be seen in FES. The 1st finger on e1 in b. 6 visible in EE most probably also indicates that fingering.
