I tried both of those. The character was coming through properly, just wasn’t displaying properly. Firebug showed the proper character and copy and pasting the text into the search bar also showed the proper character.

I did figure it out though. I remembered that I was using @font-face, and realized the problem was that that font file didn’t include those special characters in them so it was just displaying gibberish. Switch fonts did the trick.
