I worked at Metalbox in Carlisle (where tin was produced) from 1983-2000. I'm not sure when the tin was 1st made but I do know that it was still being produced through the 1980's and possibly into the 90's. The small tin you ask about was produced for duty free and they would hold either 2packs of playing cards or had an insert place in and held a miniature bottle of JD. (there was also a tin made to hold a full size bottle of JD) - edit by Patricia Irving
