How? Only by experience and a a good reference library that one uses consistently.

"force" matching is always detectable, even if one has to resort to x-rays! Though
not always practical or cost effective.

There are laws against fraud in all locations; I believe this is the issue- it is the proving that is difficult and probably more costly than the item's value that is in question. JMHO.
