It's almost impossible to determine by yourself unless you have specialized equipment. You should take the coin to a dealer, or possibly a jeweler, who will have sensitive scales and the other tools to test the coin's specific gravity, electromagnetic "signature", and so on.

You need to be more specific on the date of your coin and the country of origin. For example, some $2 coins are real gold, such as the Newfoundland 2 dollar gold coin which is 22K gold. On the other hand, there are many $2 coins that aren't real gold, for example Australia's modern $2 coin looks golden but contains no real gold, neither does Canada's modern $2 coin. If you are unsure about if your $2 coin contains gold, post a new question including the date and the country of origin.
