My list is

1, M103, prominant dark lane even in medium size scopes, elegant shape.
2, LMC
3, Centaurus A , Distinctive even thru 120mm refractor.
4, NGC 253 lots of detail, fine field.
5, M83 spiral structure visable even in moderate light pollution with a 200mm Dob.
6, NGC 55 in sculptor
7, 3C 273 Quasar in Virgo. not much to look at but it's sheer distance makes this a remarkable object.
8, SMC
