Things to check:
shape (both inside and out)
color (both inside and out)
gills
spore pattern
what it was growing on
what season you found it
what location you found it
Ideally, you’ll be with someone that knows the mushrooms in the area and can offer more guidance. And again, if you aren’t 100% sure of the fungus, toss it rather than take a chance.
