NGC 4098 is an interacting[2] pair of spiral galaxies[2][3] located 330 million light-years away[3] in the constellation Coma Berenices.[4] NGC 4098 was discovered by astronomer William Herschel on April 26, 1785. It was then rediscovered by Hershel on December 27, 1786 was listed as NGC 4099.[5] NGC 4098 is a member of the NGC 4065 Group.[6][7][8][9][10]

NGC 4098 is interacting with the galaxy pair VV 62.[2]

A candidate supernova of an unknown type, which was designated as SNhunt287 (PSN J12060084+2036183), was discovered in NGC 4098 on April 25, 2015.[11][12][13]
