How to remove the knobs from this faucet

faucetsink

Any suggestions for how to remove the knobs so that I can replace the cartridges (Lasco S-180-1NL 4001)? There are no screws. I am able to loosen the knob from the counter top by unscrewing from underneath the sink, which allows me to raise the knob up a bit so that I can unscrew the silver disk you see in the photo that is below the gold part of the knob, but I don't get further than that. The knob stays attached to the fixture and I can't get to the cartridge. Thank you![enter image description here]1

We have pretty much the same ones. The top chrome part should pop off and the screw lays on the top. That screw removes the entire faucet handle.

I take flat head screwdriver to the edge and it pops off. Not exactly easy. But it will come off.

I've had to replace 3 sets of these units, and it was an absolute nightmare, good luck!
