Check the manual page for each shell, and you'll see that there's a method to find the version...

e.g.
Code:
tcsh> echo $version
tcsh 6.11.00 (Astron) 2001-09-02 (sparc-sun-solaris) options 8b,nls,dl,al,rh,color
bash> bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.03.0(1)-release (sparc-sun-solaris)

...etc...
