Mounting hardware

[prdbman]

View media item 799I'm trying to replace my faucet but the mounting hardware on the original doesn't seem standard. See attached pic. The nuts on the outside don't seem to be securing the faucet rather something is attached to the center.

What is this and how do I remove it?

Thanks for your response .. I found the answer on another site though. It was a toggle bolt that has to be removed from the top. I figured out how to get to the bolt up top and then it came off very easily.
