Everything on this example appears to be correct. It has the crimped ball hinge joint, and the flat metal hook. Obviously the pin is missing. However, I have not seen another one with indent on the back of the head.
Thoughts on this Infanterie Sturmabzeichen JFS...

I don't remember seeing one with this mark on the reverse of the head either.
You can compare the rest of the details with my bronze example posted here.

From the photos the award looks correct to me. Was thinking maybe the indentation was caused by the pin but then I noticed the silver wash is in the indentation so that killed that bright idea. That and the fact that it would take extreme force to indent the zinc. The zinc would probably crack first....anyway...I'm rambling....
Maybe something got caught in the die...
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
