About the 1517 and 1522 dates for the Constantinople (first) edition

1517 would be 5277/5278 in Hebrew, with the ending letters being Zayyin or CHess. One auction-related item said 1516, which could also fit, post Jewish New Year, as 5277.

1522 would be 5282 or 5283, with ending letters Pay, followed by Bais or Gimmel. Neither would be confused for a Zayyin or CHess; the Pay does not resemble Ayyin.

The 1517 date is most predominant/has more than one "hit" whereas 1522 doesn't fit. Pi314m (talk) 23:57, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
