What has me wondering is the last "1" in 1931 seems to be at an angle to the rest of the digits. Was this something common on this date? The price looks good, but I'd like some feedback.

Here is Franklin's from the coin shop got it and more for $25 FV junk silver.We have a China 1909-S VDB and a 1922 Plain they are both zinc the green on the coin you are looking at I would say it is copper.

Agreed... looks to be real. The slant may just be the image... capturing the wood grain effect that some copper coins get. The illusion is that the 1 is slanted because the grain goes that way.
