I don't think this one is interesting, it doesn't look like the original "1". The last digit is much lower, I guess someone add it later, and this dealer "wwaph" is famous for fakes if you ask me.
Sometimes I think about how they numbered these cams in the factory, it could be a reason for many errors if not made accurately. But on this Zorki-1 the first 6 normal digits are all in line and with the same space between. There are other cams where it seems each number is stamped separately, with the result of different space between and different hight in position.
By the way, we had a same thread in the past, I remember a Fed without the last 2 letters and an I-50 with f=3 instead of 3.5
