How do you tell if bricks are facing or engineering?

I've had a store of left over new bricks since the extension in 2012. The reds are obviously facing - I can see them in the external walls - but I have no recollection of where the yellow bricks were used.



How do you tell if they are facing or engineering bricks?

Engineering bricks have almost polished surfaces, and are about twice the density of facing bricks.
