As it's name suggests, a popcorn tin is made of tin. Tin is a metal but almost no cans, or popcorn tins, were actually made of tin. Rather they were made of tinplate, which is a thin layer of tin over a steel can. Today, aluminum cans have largely replaced tinplate cans - the can is aluminum while the top of the can is still made of tinplate.
The primary difference between tin plate and silver plate is in what they are made of and their application. Tin plate is usually applied via electroplating and silver plate is applied via Tollen's reagent.

A tin-plate is defined to be a thin sheet of iron or a steel alloy that is coated with tin. This helps prevent the steel from rusting. They are most commonly used to make cans and pots.
No cans currently in wide use are composed primarily or wholly of tin; that term rather reflects the nearly exclusive use in cans, until the second half of the 20th century, of tinplate steel, which combined the physical strength and relatively low price of steel with the corrosion resistance of tin. Most cans are made from either aluminium or tinplate steel. For the most part, however, it is really a case of old habits die hard. It is just something which has stuck in the modern vernacular.
