The potential would be the same on the surface or inside the sphere or object

Explanation:

A metal sphere's potential is proportional of directly to its q charge, and proportional of inversely to its r-radius.

That is  

V = \frac{q}{4\pi∈r }

∈ = ∈

Where

q is charge in free space  

r is radius  

Because both spheres are conductors of the similar radius and charge, the load they obtain appears equally on the surface.

Thus, the potential would be the same on the surface or inside the sphere or object , no matter whether the object (sphere) is solid or hollow.
