    Nolli (minor planet designation: 473 Nolli) is a rather small asteroid that may be in the Eunomia family. It was discovered by Max Wolf on February 13, 1901, but only observed for 1 month [3] so it became a lost asteroid for many decades. It was recovered in 1987, 86 years after its discovery. [4]
