Character 0xa3 is the ISO Latin-1 pound sign.

I feel certain the terminal is configured to send £ rather than # for
shift-3, and your editor is displaying it as "\xa3".  What this means
you need to do is, of course, reconfigure the terminal.  Unfortunately
I don't know the VT320 well enough to say how to do this, but I hope
this is at least a pointer in a useful direction.
