Why not just navigate to the wallet file and look at its date of creation? That could potentially give you an answer. Open Finder and navigate to ~/.electrum/wallets. Your wallet files should be in there. Find the one called default_wallet and see if it was created recently or back in 2014.

I navigated to the wallet but it just says created today (when I last opened it). Screenshot below if that helps:

On another note, is it weird that on opening Electrum I don't have to enter a password for the default_wallet to open either? It just automatically pops up upon opening Electrum.
However, if I want to open my test wallet I have to enter a password.

Thanks again for the help guys.
