Definitely not! A quite reliable source, from Kermit (utf8.txt), but
also an application, UnicodeChecker) explain:
[Ă] 0102 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH BREVE
[€] 20AC EURO SIGN
Have you checked what gucharmap tells?

Anti-aliasing is not delivered from libfontconfig – you have GTK
enabled and GNOME in use! And it's actually libfreefont2 that
provides the calls and means to anti-aliasing, but then it's GTK+2
that makes use of these capabilities. Libfontconfig exists to
determine a font by describing its features – and also alternatives/
substitutes, it's more of a human approach.
Whether you are using fontconfig or usual X11 you can determine by
the syntax you use to describe the font. This one is fontconfig:
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Roman:weight=100
the next one is usual X11, so-called XFLD syntax:
-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-
iso10646-1
