Not sure, but it can be related to vt(9). Is it happen every time you
terminate xorg with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace? (Hope you sure you run with
vt(9) (a.k.a. newcons))

vt(9) currently have no own keyboard mapping files. 
But you can prepare your own using instructions here:

If it will produce '¤' for AltGr+E, you can find Unicode
code-point for '¤' (hex 0xc2a4, dec 49828) in your ukbd file and
replace it with code-point of '€' (hex 0xc280, dec 49792).
