M-107
M-107 is a nice globular about 11 degrees from M-10.   It is almost in the constellation Scorpius.  It's much smaller and dimmer than M-10, but it is still a nice view in a 8-10 inch scope, assuming you have dark skies.  M-107 is low enough to get lost in urban light pollution for observers in the USA.   M-10, M-12, M-14 and M-107 are neighbors in the Constellation Ophiuchus
