Magento 1.x

https://github.com/OpenMage/magento-mirror/commits/magento-1.5/skin/frontend/default/default/css/styles.css

Magento 2.x

For Magento 2 shops you get the version on a silver plate as long as the Magento_Version module is not disabled. Just visit shop-domain.tld/magento_version. Example output:

Magento/2.1 (Community)

However, there is no information about the exact patch version.

If the version module is disabled or access to this URL is blocked, you can also check a default stylesheet like /static/frontend/Magento/blank/en_US/css/print.css. But until now, the copyright notice does not tell much:

Version             @copyright
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Magento 2.0         Copyright © 2016 Magento.
Magento 2.1         Copyright © 2016 Magento.

The copyright notice in /skin/frontend/default/default/css/styles.css is already a good indicator.

These are the different copyright notices for Magento CE:

To distinguish 1.4 and 1.5 you should do an actual diff against the files. This mirror repository on GitHub might help:
