The separated  hairpin in GE is a revision facilitating the engraver's work. In Chopin's times, both versions of notation were often considered equivalent.

The non-slashed grace notes in bars 9 and 14 is a systematic inaccuracy of the engraver of GE – all grace notes in the entire opus 63 are non-slashed in GE. As confirms the authenticity of short, slashed grace notes of FE (→EE).

b. 16

composition: Op. 63 No. 2, Mazurka in F minor

Double bar line in As, FE (→EEW)

Single bar line in GE
..

Taking into account the fact that a double bar line is already in As, the version of GE is probably an arbitrary revision or a mistake.

composition: Op. 63 No. 2, Mazurka in F minor

..

In the main text we add a cautionary  to d1 in bars 19 and 27, which was performed also by GE3.
