    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 unusually it remained a "lost asteroid" for many decades, until it was recovered finally in 1987,[1] 86 years later. Almost nothing is known about its characteristics.
