If examined with detect magic, the aura emitted by the spell reveals it to be "strong," without revealing the magic's source. However, an identify spell correctly divulges the truth.
Though the magic gives no bonuses to saving throws for the object, if Nystul's magic aura is cast on a weapon, it becomes a "magic weapon" with regards to creatures that can only be hit by magic — though the spell gives no bonuses to hit or damage.
Origin
Nystul the Lurking was a Sage of Black Magic, whose contributions to magic in the 14th century spectacularly increased the boundaries of magical theory and practice. He was one of the founders of The Ohrid School of Thaumaturgy.
