I think you would have to be a physicist to do that. It would be easier to identify the coin by nation of origin, date and denomination, and a coin guide book will help do this, and the book will tell you what metal the coin is made from.
You can look on the rim of the coin and if there is no brown on it it is silver. If the coin is silver looking on the rim then drop it and listen for a high pitch cling sound which is another way to identify it.
If you can bend them with your teeth, it is a fake coin.
It is. All half dollars made in 1964 and earlier are 90% silver.
Divide the mass by the volume to calculate its density. If its density isn't the same as an equal amount of pure silver, the coin has some other metal in it.The density test can be fooled if the coin was adulterated with other metals that average out to the same density as silver, however.

The idea is to divice the mass by the volume, to get the density. Then compare to the density of silver.The idea is to divice the mass by the volume, to get the density.

The density of pure silver is 10.5 grams per cubic centimeter. If you have the exact volume of the coin in CCs, you can calculate the weight that it would be were it pure silver. If it differs substantially from the calculated value, it is an alloy.

One method to determine the authenticity is to weigh the coin. A genuine U.S. silver dollar should weigh 26.73 grams.
Basic Answer: Uncirculated means unused, no signs of wear. It's best to have a coin dealer or collector look at the coin to determine this.
