GDAL's epsg_tr.py can do it:

$ epsg_tr.py 1333

ERROR 6: EPSG PCS/GCS code 1333 not found in EPSG support files.  Is
this a valid
EPSG coordinate system?
Unable to lookup  1333 , either not a valid EPSG
code, or it the EPSG csv files are not accessable.

But doesn't it depend on extracting the EPSG code from a georeferenced
file? So if the extracted code was invalid (ie. the file's georeference
info was corrupted) it could react same as for an invalid EPSG code
entered?
