Crotchet E-B in FE (→GE,EE)

Quaver & rest suggested by the editors
..

The crotchet in the sources is almost certainly a mistake, which is supported by the quaver in the R.H. part and by the quavers in an analogous situation in bars 1, 5 and 7. It can be a mistake by the engraver or Chopin's inadvertence, who would often omit one of the few corrected places – see the note in bar 1. Due to the above, in the main text we give a quaver with a rest.

As was the case with bars 58-60 and 62, Chopin almost certainly forgot here about the  raising d to d in the last quaver, hence it is a d. In this case, however, he did not correct this mistake in FE2 (→EE), hence a  was added only by the reviser of GE. In the main text we give the version with d, confirmed by AI.
