IC 3900 (= PGC 44068 = PGC 1802312)
Discovered (1903) by
Stephane Javelle
A 14th-magnitude barred spiral galaxy (type SB0) in Coma Berenices (RA 12 55 41, Dec +27 15 03)

Based on recessional velocity of 7115 km/sec, about 315 million light years away. Given that and apparent size of 0.9 by 0.55 arcmin, about 85 thousand light years in diameter.
