I'm no expert, but yes they seem to be:
Looks like it was riveted on then painted over..? One rivet on each side, approximately 3/4" - 1" from the bottom of the plate.

The bolts that hold the strike plate to the front of the helmet, are the tops visible on the screen used helmets? |

Going through some other pics, there is also the suggestion that 4 rivets were used, one in each corner. It might be a trick of the light, hard to tell. Maybe one of our experts will chime in. I'm inclined to think the helmets were made in the same vein as the pulse rifles. Every one hand made and slightly different. |

I believe Hudson's helmet (the one on Harry's site) was ballsed up somehow hence the helmet cover, so it may have less rivets than others etc. |

Yeah, I was hoping Harry would chime in as he seems to be the go-to dude on these sort of matters. Wouldn't be surprised if you were right Simon. I'll wager they were all different. |
