I don't have any here right now, so I can't do that.  I never actually
measured them, but I do remember getting the expected performance in the
circuit.

Actually it is.  However a 1 farad cap may not be 1 farad I suppose if it
got damaged, was bad in the first place, used outside spec range, etc.  I'm
not sure what your point is.  Are you claiming the manufacturers are
stretching the truth?
