Doubt about charecter

I have a problem where in a statment of sql the DB Oracle doesn´t get the line in the follow situation :
 
    select name 
     from table1
      where field = 'AAA  #989';
 

I think that between A and # exist some strange character that i can´t identify it ..
 

How can I do it ?
 

Regards
