In general, you can type C-h c followed by any key and see
a message about what keystroke you just typed (from Emacs
point of view).

I just wrote this the other day.

(defun insert-sequence-key (key)
  "Inserts a keystroke suitable for use in fcns like global-set-key"
  (interactive "kInseret key chord: ")
  (insert (format "(kbd \"%s\")" (key-description key))))
