The easiest ways I find for identifying a ROM 0/ROM 1 vs ROM 3 is just by looking at the motherboard:
1) ROM 0 & ROM 1 boards have the battery soldered onto the motherboard via leads, whereas the ROM 3 has a black plastic caddy that the battery clips into
2) ROM 0 & ROM 1 boards have headers or solder points for keyboard and numeric keypad, whereas these are gone on a ROM 3
3) ROM 0 & ROM 1 boards have "Apple IIgs" written horizontally on the board (looking from the front), whereas the ROM 3 has "Apple IIgs" written vertically behind the memory expansion slot
There are also the number of chips etc, but the methods above are the "easiest" to spot.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Mike
