A very remarkable object. Has a 11th mag star S.p. 15cm shows it only very dimly. A 7th mag star east of the galaxy aids finding it. A 12th mag star is located on the NW rim.
Sides are fringy, but getting brighter to the middle.
Scattered faint stars in the field. I estimate this galaxy about 10 to 11 in brightens and 8' in size. Star to the south edge. Copyright 1998 Auke Slotegraaf. All rights reserved.
