How to see if the mirror is single-sided or double-sided?

The simplest way to identify is to look at the distance with your finger in the mirror. The coating of "single mirror" is behind the glass, and the light is reflected on the coating. Because there is a layer of glass between the coating and our fingers, there is a distance between the image in the mirror and the nails. The coating of the "double mirror" is in front of the glass, so there is no distance between the nail and the imaging.

The "double mirror" is installed between two rooms. Both rooms have lights on. When you look at the other room from one room, you will see a mirror reflecting the environment of the former. But if you look from the back room, what you see is transparent glass, and you can see the situation in the opposite room.
