I ran across this UCD paper last summer.http://arxiv.org/abs/1307.7707 It will be well placed this dark time for viewing. I know of no visual observations of this new UCD at this time so if you can catch it you will be one of the first to see this unusual object visually. It is very near M60 and is so far one of the brightest UCD's known.

The SDSS photometry says the UCD is around V Mag 17 but it is in the halo of M60 and looks much bright than this on the poss 1 and poss 2 plates to me. It will be interesting to hear your observations positive or negative of this unusual type of object
