Tintype Dating

Hey All,
I have had a heck of a time trying to date this tintype I got from a garage sale. I've attached a scan of the image. If anyone can help me that would be great!
Thanks!

Here are some results for dating tintypes from Google, which include other threads on this forum.

It's a bit tricky, because (IIRC) the technology was used for a few decades from the late 1800s into the early 1900s, even after other options became available.

For instance, here is a tintype photo of my great-grandmother (upper right), who was born in 1889. Here she looks like a young teen, which brings us to 1900 or after.

I have another set of two photos (which of course I can't locate at the moment) which were taken in a photo studio against the same painted scenic background. One group was photographed on tintype; the other was a paper print.
