William Herschel discovered NGC 7468 = H III-202 on 15 Oct 1784 (sweep 290) and recorded "eF, vS, stellar. 240 confirmed it." CH's reduction is a good match with UGC 12329 = PGC 70332. No observations were made by JH, but d'Arrest measured three positions.
400/500mm - 17.5" (9/2/89): faint, small, slightly elongated, weak concentration. Located 8.7' N of mag 7.9 SAO 108362.
