This shows that the utf-8 format was not treated as such and instead Emacs
read the file as if it were encoded in latin-1 or binary.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This means "unknown char, thus treated as a byte".
If you tell your Emacs to use utf-8 for this file (try C-x RET u utf-8 RET
before C-x C-f, or set file-coding-system-alist so it's done automatically
everytime), your char's charset should be either latin-8859-1 or
mule-unicode-nnnn.
All the above assumes you're not using Emacs in unibyte mode. Unibyte mode
(which you sadly get if you have a lingering `special-display-european' in
your .emacs) can't handle UTF-8.
