How can you tell if you have an ashcan comic in your collection? Is there a specific indicator on the actual comic or do you just have to take someone’s word for it? Tips when searching please!

Depends on whether you mean real ashcans produced in the GA as part of the legal and production process or the modern "ashcans" that were produced as manufactured limited edition collectables.

Not really. It's almost impossible to confuse either with a regular comic.
