I recently ran across a paper about two UCD's (ultra compact dwarf's) in M59. One M59 UCD-3 I had observed before but the other one UCD-c0 was new to me. I observed both of these rare objects the other night under great transparency and ok seeing. M59-UCD-3 was easy to see at MAG 14.2 but M59-c0 was a lot tougher. I could only see it with AV and could only hold it for a few seconds at a time. I thought that it was a lot dimmer than the 17.6 MAG in the SDSS average of the G and R band. I am confident of my observation as I could see it at the right location many times.
