I don't know of a simple way, but if you unzip an ODF document (it's a zip archive) you will find it contains a number of XML files, and each of those has something like
office:version="1.2"
in the preamble to the file.

Depending on your operating system and installed software, you may be able to change the document file's extension to .zip and double-click it in order to reveal its contents.

I trust this helps.

Thanks,
I had a reply from John King
Try the odf validator on:

http://odf-validator.rhcloud.com/

Setting it to 'auto-detect' enabled it to identify my odf 1.0 and odf 1.2 files.

It identifies my files as version 1.2 with a LOT of errors. Even a clean file with 2 words. Possibly because I have 1.2 Extended set in LO options. Using Brian's technique (Dolphin browses zip files like a directory) my 1.2 extended files have version="1.2". So possibly my problem arises from mixing sub-versions of 1.2.
