How old must a book be before it is public domain?

It depends upon where it was published, when, the nationality and residence of the author and what copyright formalities were in effect at the time. For example, a book published prior to 1923 in the USA has no US copyright. A book published in the USA by a US author in 1923 with copyright notice and renewal is copyrighted for 95 years. A book published in 1972 without copyright notice never had any copyright. A book written in 1899 but NOT published has copyright until 120 years after creation.

Does a copyright need to show the copy symbol before one exists?

Copyright exists in an item as soon as it is rendered into "permanent" form. The copyright symbol (©) is not needed, although placing it does give the copyright owner an easier time when trying to legally enforce a copyright infringement claim in the US. Before 1978, the symbol was needed to establish copyright under US law. Before about 1960, if you neglected to include the copyright symbol in a published work, it went immediately to the Public Domain. After about 1960, there was a way to remedy that defect, but anything published without the copyright symbol in the US before then was and is free to anyone to use as they see fit.

How can you tell if the copyright of a book has expired?

You would need to know when and where it was first published, by whom, what nationality, his or her nation of domicile, and whether the publication adhered to the necessary formalities at the time of publication (e.g., copyright notice, registration, renewal), if any. For example, books published in the USA by a US author prior to 1923 is public domain, the copyright having expired no later than 1978. A book published by a US author in the US, with copyright notice and renewal after 1922 and before 1978 would be copyrighted for 95 years. After that it would most likely be 95 years unless the author was independent (not employed as an author), in which case it would last 70 years after the year of the author's death.
