Spanish accent symbol removed by sed

Hello All
in a text file I have to replace some numeric code by a string.

This is an exemple of the file:

Code:

000000001 LDR   L ^^^^^nam^^2200169Ia^45e0
000000001 008   L 100604s9999^^^^xx^^^^^^^^^^^^000^0^und^d
000000001 022   L $$a0365-6675
000000001 090   L $$aBMA 1934-1937.
000000001 245   L $$aANALES DE LA REAL SOCIEDAD ESPA�OLA DE FISICA Y QUIMICA$$h2
000000001 260   L $$aMADRID (ESPA�A)$$bREAL SOCIEDAD ESPA�OLA DE FISICA Y QUIMICA$$c1902
000000001 310   L $$aMENSUAL
000000001 500   L $$aCONTINUADA POR: "ANALES DE FISICA Y QUIMICA", ISSN: 0365-2351.
000000001 650   L $$a400000
000000001 650   L $$a660000
000000001 666   L $$aFISICA;QUIMICA

so in this file I must change this:
Only the 2 first digits are relevant

Code:

000000001 650   L $$a400000

by it's correspondence.

To do so, I choose sed, like this:

Code:

sed -i '/[0-9]\{9\} 650   L $$a40[0-9]\{4\}/{G;s/^\(.* $$a\)[0-9]\{5\}\(.*\)\(\n\)$/\1Qu�mica\2\3\1Chemistry\2/g}' revistas1.mrk_aleph_sec.dat

This code works but it change the accents from this

Code:

MADRID (ESPA�A)

to this:

Code:

MADRID (ESPA�<91>A)

Whit this new code, the accents are lost...
Any idea?
