It is a pin fitting used by all helmets at this time. Strong and practical ( depending on how well the helmet was made in the first place ) . Helmets found without there plates, pins could have been removed or the weak part is the loop on the cheek plate which  has worn through. Also which variation of the helmet you are looking at ?
