Keycaps With Multiple Legends

Since recently opening my mind to using ANSI layout as I was initially adamant on using anything but ISO, I discoverd the method of switching the language from UK to US using Alt+Shift--mind blown. So now my question is: can I get keycaps with multiple legends that would (for example) show both # and £ on the 3 key? This is of course a luxury and I'd imagine most people try to just memorise it, but it would be a bit more helpful to know where everything is in front of you.

My MacBook Air has that double legend on the 3 key. As does my PowerBook. It’s not unheard of. Option + 3 gets me £ while Shift + 3 gets me # as I prefer. Same story with @ and € on the neighbouring 2 key. Easily swapped around by setting UK instead of US keyboard region in the OS.

What switches and therefore which caps do you have in mind?
