How can you tell if your 1986 British Two Pound Commonwealth Games coin is gold?
It should be fairly easy since the standard alloy 1 pound coin is yellow-ish and the silver one is, well, silver. The silver one is also a proof so it should have very reflective mirror like surfaces.

Which European coins have a silver outside and a gold center?
None that I know of. The idea behind having a different metal in the core of any coin is to increase the coin's structural integrity. Gold is quite soft and though valuable, would make a poor choice for any coin. You may be thinking of a so-called bimetallic coin. Many countries issue these coins, but they're made of brass and copper-nickel, not gold and silver. Examples are the Canadian $2 coin, the European €1 and €2 coins, and the British £2 coin.

The US didn't make any circulating silver dollars from 1804 to 1835 inclusive. If your coin is small, gold in color, and has a picture of Andrew Jackson on it, it's a modern $1 coin and it's made of brass, not silver (that's why it's brass-colored and not silver-colored, after all!) 1829 was when Jackson was inaugurated.

How do you tell a silver one pound coin from a nickel brass one?
A silver Pound coin, usually Proof FDC, is made from silver and has a silver appearance and it will also state the fineness of the silver on the box it comes in. It will also cost significantly more than One Pound to buy one. They are made for collectors and investors. The general circulation nickel-brass Pound coins have a sort of a poor gold appearance and are what you expect in your loose change. Both coin types from any one year should have the same design, front and back.
What is a 2000 silver dollar worth?
If you're referring to a large coin that's really made of silver, its value depends on the price of silver at the current time. Silver has been in the $10-$11/oz range in late 2008 but can and does change a lot. If you have a small gold-colored coin it's not silver obviously, and it's not gold either. It's an ordinary circulating brass $1 coin worth exactly one dollar.
What weighs more 1 pound of silver or 1 pound of gold?
