Altoids were invented in the 19th century by Smith & co. To learn more about these tasty treats, look inside of the tin that Altoids come in on the paper. It has a brief history of Altoids.
An Altoids tin can be used for a number of things. It can house a tiny camera, or even act as a holder for a survival kit or first aid kit.
To increase their shelf life and make them more resistant to moisture/heat. Individual wrappers will prevent the Altoids from melting together.
The Wrigley company sells their Altoids mints in a tin box. The tin box serves as an easy way to recognize the brand, and provide a durable container.

Tin is a metal
No, tin is a pliable metal
Tin itself is a Non-Ferrous metal however Tin Plate is a ferrous metal
Tin has two forms (allotropes) one is "white tin" (beta-tin) which is a metal although some chemists/metrial scientists would call it a "poor metal"- and "grey tin" (alpha-tin), a low temperature form, which has a similar structure to diamond and more covalent in character. So one allotrope is a metal and the other isn't. Probably the answer a school teacher expects is tin is metal.
