[Competition] Best folio number parallels.

[eggyk]

You found a very strong parallel already. I wonder if there is even anything in there that must be explained by being in a different stage of evolution rather than just the fact that different scribes are different people. Maaaybe something like the tilt of 7 or 4? I'm just guessing at this stage.

This made me look further into the manuscript, and found something really interesting. It may be the same hand using both the old and new forms of 4, 5, and 7. Here are examples of both being used in the same diagrams:

   

v was used for 7 until 40r, and then it switches to 7 on the next page. 
   

I guess this was someone who knew and used both in a kind of transition period? I honestly don't know.
