Not sure how old, but it is mighty nifty. Almost looks like crossed scepters... a la the episode of Bugs Bunny and the Sheriff of Nottingham... well, maybe not.

This is a start: Insignias and Plaques - FIELD ARTILLERY. Without the described oval, your cannons are pre-1901. The pulltab is post 1901.
