1860's.Probably early-mid.
For dating it's always best to show all of it + the back.

Hi Jim ,had the photos sent by Ipad but as far as i can remember there was nothing on the back ,most of them were like a brown back like a hard card or formica type stuff not card ,the trouble is there are about 70 of them not as old as the one i posted but very old ones .
