IC 3500 (= PGC 41751 = PGC 1445392)
Discovered (1904) by
Royal Frost
A 14th-magnitude barred spiral galaxy (type SBc) in Coma Berenices (RA 12 33 50, Dec +13 57 46)

Based on recessional velocity of 6120 km/sec, about 275 million light years away. Given that and apparent size of 0.6 by 0.4 arcmin, about 50 thousand light years in diameter.
