Well, that depends on what your favourite version of reality is, the
Unicode Consortium for instance published a mapping table for shift_-
jis which (now obsolete) mapped 0x5C to U+00A5 and there is software
out there that uses that mapping. I don't doubt there are also fonts
that simply map U+005C to a yen sign glyph, giving only an appearance
of incorrect or otherwise surprising mappings.
