Help dating a tin of Half and Half

[Cool Breeze]

So, I was at an antique store today and they had some old tobacco tins.
I'm not a collector of tins but was looking at them and noticed a tin of Half and Half was substantially heavier than the rest of them.
The thing is unopened.
It has a key attached to the bottom of the tin to open it, and the top and bottom are slightly bulged so it is obviously still airtight.
It was only $5 so I bought it. I plan to open it and see what kind of condition it is in, but want to do some research first and see about when it was made. I can't find anything on it. There is not a barcode on the tin, so that's good.

Here is what it looks like, though this tin is in better condition than the one I bought.
What do y'all think?

I'd say go for it. It was sealed, and should be good. Like my Uncle Joey always said: "Take a chance, Columbus did."

I dont know chit about pipe tobacco, but I'm with @chain_gang - Smoke it!

I'm definitely going to open it up and try it if it still looks and smells good.
I'm trying to gather as much info as I can before opening, because I think I'll film a video of it for Youtube.

I do not expect it to be anything spectacular, but it should be a super smooth smoke.
