What does C-u C-x = say for the first garbled character?

For me, the message displays normally and I get

       character: M (77, #o115, #x4d)
preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
      code point: 0x4D
          syntax: w     which means: word
        category: a:ASCII graphic characters 32-126 (ISO646 IRV:1983[4/0])
          l:Latin r:Japanese roman
     buffer code: #x4D
       file code: not encodable by coding system iso-latin-1-dos
         display: by this font (glyph code)
    -raster-Courier-normal-normal-normal-mono-13-*-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1 (#x4D)

There are text properties here:
 face                 (fixed-pitch :foreground "red")
 help-echo            [Show]
