Simplest way, assuming that you can still contact them, is ask the person you bought it from

Hi,
a colleague I know as a case a bit like yours... His phone is on FW 1.0.2 and they didn't tell him how it has been unlocked.
By checking some stuff and chatting with people here the conclusion is:
to have at least a clue on how the thing has been unlocked (if you can't contact the seller) is to check what WEEK, baseband and bootloader your phone is.
The week will already give you a hint on what FW the phone was when bought (OTB). Example, a Week 50 most probably was a 1.1.2 with BL 4.6, unlockable only by HW or *SIM
Then go into Settings / About and check for the baseband version. If you read 4.2.13G then your phone was a 1.1.2 OTB. High chances for it to be (or have been) a 4.6 bootloader.
Install "Hardware Info" from the Installer (add Trejan source to it if you didn't before). The application "Hardware Info" will show you a lot of usefull info, especially your Baseband and bootloader version.
Check there your bootloader version.
3.9 means your phone has been unlocked via software. AnySim or IPSF. Maybe after HW unlock to replace bootloader 4.6 with 3.9
4.6 means that you're either using a Turbosim (or Turbosim clone) or that your phone has a Turbosim clone (XSim maybe) soldered inside
In these two last cases, your pretty safe to follow a procedure where they talk about a 1.1.2 OTB (after clean update to 1.1.1, jb etc to 1.1.2)... Maybe to do a revirginise but on this matter I'll let somebody more experienced than me to cover this point.
Ka.
