Another possibility, perhaps more likely, is that some connection
didn't set client_encoding to win1250 before it inserted win1250-encoded
data; in that case the data was probably treated as LATIN2 and
stored without conversion.  When a connection with client_encoding
set to win1250 tries to fetch the data, conversion is attempted and
fails because some LATIN2 values don't have win1250 mappings.
