1164 Kobolda is a main belt asteroid orbiting the Sun. It makes a revolution around the Sun once every 4 years. It was discovered by Karl Wilhelm Reinmuth at Heidelberg, Germany on 19 March 1930. Its provisional designation was 1930 FB.[1] Were Pluto categorized as a minor planet when first discovered, this would likely have been its number. Another proposed minor planet number for Pluto was 10000, which was occupied by 10000 Myriostos.[2][3]
