Nailing down an exact date on these 1870s is a bit tough. This is just my
personal opinion and I'm sure others may differ. I think the "short 7" cross
dates between 1873 and 1914 and given that it has a set of oaks on it, I think
more likely between 1895 and 1914.

I think the "AWS" is also post 1873 and could possibly be as late as 1920s

Both are nice looking crosses and I would be happy to have either one in my own collection.
