It's 1870s. There's no bat or ball, but my guess is its a baseball player.

You probably won't find team or player, but a good 1870s baseball CDV has value in its own right.

I haven't seen much original hand coloring of 1870s CDVs-- you see it once in a while in the 1860s. However, when present, 1800s coloring tended to be primitive and unsubtle, so I think the coloring could be from the 1800s.
