shell-command-on-region (M-|) does not do the {de,en}coding of I/O to the
process as documented.
It says (if I read it correctly) that it will use buffer-file-coding-system
(at least unless coding-system-for-{read,write} are set) for output to and
input from (if doing substitution with a prefix argument) the process.
However, it "just" calls call-process-region which will use
default-process-coding-system rather than buffer-file-coding-system.
To try, 'emacs -q', switch to an empty buffer, and:
C-x RET f iso-8859-7 RET C-SPC C-u M-| echo -e '\0245' RET
This does not insert a drachma sign.
However, if you run (setq default-process-coding-system '(iso-8859-7
iso-8859-7)) first, it does indeed produce a drachma.
Output encoding works the same way.

Thanks, I made the doc string match the implementation.
The fix is committed as revision 107794 on the emacs-24 branch, and
will be in Emacs 24.1.
