How could the presence of silver Ag inside a sealed pottery box be sensed electronically with no intrusion ?
 
Shake it! If you hear a klink your good to go!
You would be able to detect if it were metal, but not specifically Ag
What happened?

Have a look at Pulse Induction (PI) metal detectors. These work by inducing eddy currents in the target object and measuring the decay time. Different metals produce delays proportional to their resistance.
