The character 'Æ' is rejected as an invalid UTF-8 character.

Here are the steps used to recreate it:

create table test (text_field text);
insert into test (text_field) values ('Æ');

Returned error: 
invalid UTF-8 byte sequence detected near byte 0x92

This statement also does not work:
insert into test (text_field) values ('\Æ');
