The moon was a silver dollar is definitely a metaphor. Remember that for something to be a simile it must be preceded by like or as.

Is the moon is a white balloon in the sky a metaphor simile personification idiom or a hyperbole?

Metaphors are comparisons that directly state something is something else. Similes compare by using "like" or "as." Personifications are when you make something inanimate seem alive. Idioms are phrases where the literal meaning makes no sense. Hyperbole is exaggeration.This statement is directly calling the moon a white balloon, so it's a metaphor.
