With Firefox you can determine if you have already bookmarked a URL by the presence/absence of the star at the right end of the URL. Clicking the star will bookmark a URL if not already bookmarked.

If it is bookmarked and you want another copy you should be able to select Bookmarks/Show All Bookmarks.
Then Enter something in the search box (upper right corner) to locate the existing bookmark.
Right click and select Copy.
Navigate to the folder you want to place it and right click - select Paste.

There are other Bookmark Duplicate Cleaners if you want something more current.
