I'd hate to get a crown fitted, only to find out there was some kind of biocompatibility issue.

Does that happen frequently, and is there any way to test for it in advance?

I used to wear a gold ring with no problem, but obviously that was on my finger not in my mouth.

Gold is well recommended as a suitable material for a molar tooth, right?

Silver or anything isn't an option?
