I believe it is the "ó small o acute"

The original Windows File has this in it.
Dón   (there is an accent on the o).

The file that gets delivered to z/os has this in it:
Dsn

In my FTPDATA for the FTP server, I have this:

;SBDATACONN   (IBM-1047,IBM-850)

Which is commented out, so I'm using the "default" .  I do have a 
"TCPIP.STANDARD.TCPXLBIN " dataset, which would be 7th on the hierarchy list.

What does your "accented lower case O" look like.  What accent?  In Unicode.
I find at least the following:
ö small o umlaut
ô small o circumflex
ó small o acute
ò small o grave

What language does it come from?  That might be a clue to the EBCDIC code page.

In ISO8859-1, 'A2'x is "¢", a cent sign.   I might expect other languages to
overload that.
