Use an inductance meter.

Tim:

an inductance meter is a good example of "buy" vs "make" -- if you have a Digital Volt Meter Jameco sells a kit for around $7 to measure inductance using the DVM.

the heathkit RLC bridge usually sells for around $20 on EBay. there are good units from B&K, Sencore which are available all the time.
