Yep, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin-1 tells me that LATIN1 is missing the euro sign...
Grrrrr I hate this !!!

So use Latin9 ...

Of course, but it doesn't work !!!
Whatever client encoding I choose in postgresql before COPYing, I get the 'invalid byte sequence error'.

The farther I can get is exporting to UNICODE and importing as UTF8. Then COPY only breaks on the euro symbol (otherwise it breaks very early, I think on the first "non-ascii" character).
