More info would have been helpful, but:
Hydrochloric acid. It'll bubble on contact with iron, and eventually dissolve it, allowing you to identify which is which or simply remove the iron.
"Stainless Steel" is steel in which most or all of the carbon has been removed.
An easily available commercial product is called Tap-out.

Why stainless steel is better then iron?
Stainless steel is stronger and retards rust unlike iron
What shiny mirror-like metal is mixed with iron to make stainless steel?
Chrome is used with iron to create stainless steel alloys.
Which element is the odd one out nickel iron stainless steel or cobalt?
Stainless Steel; all other choices are elements - stainless steel is a steel alloy (composite elements).
How is stainless steel made from iron ore?
The iron ore is refined into iron, The molten iron is then alloyed (mixed) with other molten metals, commonly chromium and nickel, along with carbon. There are different mixes to produce stainless steel with different properties. It is not truly stainless, but is stain RESISTANT and rust RESISTANT.
Does stainless steel have iron?
72 percent i think
Why stainless steel is better then iron?

What is stainless steel used to make?
It is iron and add 0.5 percent of carbon for making stainless steel.
Does water with high iron content cause stainless steel fittings to rust?
Good quality stainless steel should never rust. I have noticed that the high iron content in our water causes red particles of iron oxide to remain on stainless steel vessels - and it looks exactly like rust but its just the iron in the water drying out on the stainless steel.
How ordinary iron to stainless steel?
Oversimplifying it alot: Iron + Carbon --> High Carbon Steel High Carbon Steel + Chromium & other surface alloy metals --> Stainless Steel Basically Stainless Steel is ordinary Steel with a surface Chrome Steel layer protecting it from corrosion.
Which element is the odd one out nickel iron stainless steel or cobalt?
Stainless Steel; all other choices are elements - stainless steel is a steel alloy (composite elements).
How much steel alloy is used to make stainless steel?
Yes, stainless steel is an iron-carbon alloy with a minimum of 11.5 wt% chromium content. Many of the common grades of stainless steel such as AISI 304, 316, 316L also have greater than 5% Nickel added. It improves the high temperature performance and stabilizes the austenite phase.
What is the percentage of iron in stainless steel?
That depends on the type of stainless; it will vary betwen 65-80% iron
