Mk 380 is classified as a high redshift QSO (z = 2.737) in the catalog of Véron and Véron (1985). New spectrophotometric observations yield instead z = 0.475 and a luminosity both in the lines and the continuum comparable to that of the galaxy Fairall 9. Mk 380 is therefore the most distant genuine Seyfert I nucleus observed to date. The authors also draw attention to its strong Fe II line spectrum and hard optical continuum.
