First message was utf-8 coded, this ona I'll send in latin2 charset. 
Letters are: 'đ'(240) and 'Đ'(208).
Those are modifications  of leters 'd' and 'D'.  In emacs you can get 
those characters if you type "C-x <RET> C-\ latin-2-prefix <RET>" and 
then type 2 tetters: ' and d  (' and D for the other one).
