Comment (by jani20):

 Thank you @TobiasBg, this is it. The characters are in post content pasted
 from some non-WP source (Hubspot probably). The issue was noticed when
 get_the_excerpt() cut the content so U+0092 was the last character to be
 shown in the excerpt, after esc_html() the excerpt disappears.
