The difference is in the height that the design details extend out from the surface. High reliefe coins tend to not get fully struck up on the high points of the design -- especially in the hair above the ear.

Pictures of the high & low relief coins can be seen on CoinFacts, using the link below.

What would you tell an engineer who has suggested a design for a new battery using silver for both electrodes?

There must be a difference between the electrodes. If both are silver metal the voltage will be zero.

How can you tell the difference between a silver and a copper-nickel 1776-1976 dollar?

Silver bicentennial dollars were only sold in 3-piece Bicentennial sets along with Washington quarters and Kennedy half dollars. All carry an S mint mark. The coins were made of clad silver comprising outer layers of 80% silver / 20% copper bonded to an inner core with those percentages reversed. The core tends to have a grayish tint to it. Circulation bicentennial dollars were only minted at Philadelphia (no mint mark at that time) and Denver (D). The core is pure copper so it will have either a shiny copper or dark brown color.
