I do not know what the indentations are for.

You are right, the base metal VDNKh medals have small indentations at the bottom on the reverse rim. As far as I can tell, these indicate the class of the medal, as the gilting tends to wear out very rapidly on these:
. Gold medal: 1 indentation
. Silver medal: 2 indentations
. Bronze medal: 3 indentations

I think Marc has the reason for the indentations for you Dat,
