Depends.  First and foremost it depends on what are "€" and "£", since there
are many different such values, all displayed identically.  Check the
multibyteness of those strings, as well as the result of string-to-char:

   (let ((str "€"))
     (list (multibyte-string-p str) (string-to-char str) (key-binding str)))
   (let ((str "£"))
     (list (multibyte-string-p str) (string-to-char str) (key-binding str)))
