UTF-8: Russian characters and Euro symbol do not appear and store in mysql table

I have to store text written in the Russian language in mySQL table and also I have to pick up the Euro symbol from the mySQL table and present it to the user in the browser. I used the mysql_set_charset('utf8') and it successfully saves the text in Russian in the database, but then the Euro symbol does not appear. If I remove that statement then the Euro symbol appears but the Russian characters are stored incorrectly.

If you mean the Euro is not posted on the Webpage. Maybe your html document is not set to UTF-8. UTF-8 lists the euro sign.

A table in "utf8_general_ci" can store Russian and Euro without any problems. http://www.collation-charts.org/mysql60/mysql604.utf8_general_ci.european.html
