Exclamation mark and at sign
On a US keyboard, [ ! ] and [ @ ] are [Shift] with [ 1 ] and [ 2 ]: hold the right [Shift] first, then strike [ 1 ] with your left pinky or [ 2 ] with your left ring finger. Afterwards your fingers go back to their places.
On a UK keyboard, [ ! ] is in the same place, but [Shift] and [ 2 ] give the double quote [ " ]. The [ @ ] sign is [Shift] with the apostrophe key to the right of [ ; ] - hold the left [Shift] and strike it with your right pinky.
