How could you age a recently hard silver soldered joint in copper
so that it blends in to the old copper and does not look like a
new joint?


I don't know, but some of the videos by this chap may answer the
question:

Factories making cigarettes have very efficient extraction equipment.
On the basis that the dust contains some tobacco they weigh it and
claim back the tax


Makes sense - much like pubs collecting spoilt beer and sending it back
to the brewer to let them dispose of it in front of the excise officer!
