silver will most likely have the symbol 925 imprinted on it somewhere. as for telling if something is pewter or not, I'm still trying to work that out.
"Pewter contains lead and will leave a pencil-like mark when drawn across a piece of paper."
Actually, pewter can (and used to, exclusively) contain lead along with other metals but modern alloys contain tin (92%-95%), copper(up to 2.5%) and subtitute ANTIMONY (less than 2%) for LEAD. There are standards about the amount of antimony added to the alloy in order that the finished pewter product is food-safe.

The difference between SILVER and PEWTER should be readily apparent as pewter is so much softer than silver. Pewter can be carved with a sharp tool with relative ease: silver can not. Even if it doesn't contain lead pewter will still leave a mark when scratched on a hard surface (but so will silver...just a mark of a different gray).
Silver coins are typically shinier and have a higher metallic sound when dropped compared to pewter coins. Silver coins are also heavier than pewter coins due to their higher density. Additionally, silver coins may have distinct markings or engravings indicating their silver content.

Yes, pewter can be silver plated. This process involves applying a thin layer of silver onto the surface of the pewter through a method called electroplating or through a physical deposition process. This gives the pewter an appearance similar to silver while still retaining its original characteristics.
Silver has more value than pewter. Silver is an element that is mined and is considered a precious metal. Pewter is an alloy or blend of tin and other metals, sometimes including lead.

Yo have to get a fossil then you take it to the museum in Pewter City and there should be a scientist on the right who will tell you if you have any fossils.
