That usually doesn't work in my experience (Magit doesn't show all commits in the log, only the last ~250).
That of course was a "quick and dirty way". I mentioned this approach because it was about sleuthing a recent commit.
'lb' has now become a goto to do all sorts of things: branching, merging, cherry picking, interactive rebase, quickly doing n/p in the log to see commit details in the other window.. and this particular use case fit in too..
YMMW, but the first thing I do almost always after M-x magit-status is lb followed by fa.
Also, the method Noam mentioned is spot on: M-x magit-show-commi.
