HI Alex, my first and only new car was a Holden Belmont HQ Panel van
253 (4.2 V8) passion Waggon
other terms apply here
NGC 253 was the first Real looking galaxy I has seen through a large scope(19") at the Bundaberg Observatory Queensland.
I was so blowen away by the view of the galaxy through the eyepiece that I have never forgotten it and it was the catalyst in my drive to get a larger scope
So forget the Silver Coin and keep to the Original Name.
It is my favourite galaxy and always will be
Cheers
