Pewter is a metal alloy usually between 85 and 99 per cent tin with the remainder consisting of copper, bismuth, antimony and lead. Pewter buttons are simply buttons made of pewter.
No.
The value of pewter in general is a great deal less than the value of gold because a pewter object may contain nearly about 95% tin. The other 5% may be a combination of materials including bismuth or lead. As to the value of old pewter mugs, the value is in that of the maker of the piece and the date of the piece. For example, a mug made and signed by Paul Revere would be more valuable than an unsigned piece of the same period. The general value of any antique item is usually the amount a buyer is willing to pay to acquire a piece.
Pewter is a true grey.
Despite contrary beliefs, today's pewter is perfectly safe to eat and drink from. Modern pewter contains no lead as pewter once did. How to tell if your pewter items have lead in them: The result of lead in pewter is a grayish-black patina on the surface of the item. Lead-free pewter can also oxidize over time, but it takes much longer and the patina color is usually more grayish compared to the lead-based pewter which is a darker gray or black in color.

Yes, it does. Antique pewter contains lead and will tarnish more and more quickly than "modern" lead-free pewter. Lead-containing pewter is recognizable by its darker silver-grey color. Modern pewter tarnishes slowly and evenly. Its patina is often considered an enhancement to its appearance, but if you want to remove the tarnish, you can use a pewter polish, cleaning soda, or other material (don't use silver polish or standard tarnish remover formulations).
by the way its pewter city ,not pewter town
