Steve:

What are the measurements of the flag? It should be 1 meter in width. If you have access to a black light, you could test it for modern chemicals. Are there any markings on the flag? Should be something there indicating the size (2, 3, 4, etc.) in "haba", or sections.

I suggest taking a look at Nick Komiya's write-up on the Japanese standard. He goes into great detail about the sizes of flags and how to recognize if they are genuine or not.
