pgadmin probably doesn't apply any encoding, but uses the bytes as is.

0x92 is not a valid ASCII character, ASCII characters are in the range
0x00-0x7F. 0x92 is in the 'extended ascii range', but that is not really
defined, andvdepends on the actual encoding (the real character set), that
is why the conversion fails.
