your browser does not have the proper fonts and/or language sttings

Got code? It could be the content-type causing the issue.

It's probably a different font that doesn't support the £ character. Hmph!

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

and I'm using web safe fonts

Doesn't mean they fully support the UTF-8 character plane, but I'm more sure of this being a character encoding mixmatch or something similar. Is your file saved as UTF-8?
