Are you saying that this char was an error?  If not, then it does seem
like you want to use windows-1252 (which is a perfectly normal
coding-system, tho it happens to be a lot more common for a valid utf-8
file to also be a valid windows-1252 file, so it's more difficult for
Emacs to automatically choose the right coding-system unless you tell it
that you prefer utf-8 more than 1252).
