How can you tell?

I reclaim a lot of timber and sheet stock. After reading a few posts on
hear on how to waterproof interior plywood I became curious as to how
you can tell without sacrificing whether the sheet of ply you've just
saved is interior or marine/external ply.

It should have a stamp indicating its properties. If not, its anybodies
guess.

I'll also add a comment that marine plywood is (supposed to be)
made to a different standard exterior plywood.

Marine plywood is so much more expensive that home boatbuilders
will often substitute exterior plywood, or even doorskins.
