How are you creating a virtual copy? Using the Virtual Copy function should always display the VC icon in the filmstrip or grid view. By default the virtual copy metadata is designated with the value "Copy 1" in the Copy name field in the metadata panel. You can promote virtual copies to be the master copy and you can put any value in the Copy name field So this is no guarantee the image you see is a virtual copy or a master copy/
You can. use the filter bar to select only virtual copies.
And you can create a smart collection to find images where the Copy Name field is not empty
Where are you looking? At the filmstrip? If the thumbnails of the filmstrip are too small, then images will not show any such icons. Increase the size by placing your cursor on the separation line of the main view and the filmstrip and then drag upwards.
