COMET C/2023 V5 (LEONARD)
     Gregory J. Leonard, Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, University of
Arizona, reports his discovery of another comet on images obtained on Nov. 6
UT with the Catalina Sky Survey's 0.68-m Schmidt telescope (discovery
observations tabulated below).  The comet showed a moderately condensed coma
10" across with no apparent tail in four co-added 30-s exposures.

COMET C/2023 V4 (CAMARASA-DUSZANOWICZ)
     Jordi Camarasa (Sabadell, Barcelona, Spain) reports the discovery of a
somewhat-diffuse comet by Grzegorz Duszanowicz (Akersberga, Sweden) and
himself on CMOS-camera images taken on Nov. 5.1 UT using two 0.28-m f/1.9
Schmidt-Cassegrain (Celestron C11) telescopes located at Duszanowicz's
"Moonbase South Observatory" at the Hakos "Astro Farm" in Namibia (discovery
observations tabulated below).  Follow-up observations by Camarasa and
Duszanowicz with a Celestron 14 f/7 telescope on Nov. 5.81-5.86 revealed a
clear tail, and the cometary nature of the object was obvious.
