      Let \(C_{d}\subset\mathbb{P}^{2}\) be a reduced plane curve of degree \(d\) over \(\mathbb{C}\) and \(P\) be a point on \(C_{d}.\) Let \(C_{d}=V(f),\) \(f\) reduced. There are many parameters (invariants) to measure ``the singularity'' of \(C_{d}\) at \(P.\) One of them is the log canonical threshold \(\operatorname*{lct} _{P}(\mathbb{P}^{2},C_{d})\) defined by \[ \operatorname*{lct}_{P}(\mathbb{P}^{2},C_{d}):=\{\lambda\in\mathbb{Q} :\text{the log pair }(\mathbb{P}^{2},\lambda C_{d})\}\text{ is log canonical at }P\} \] or equivalently by \[ \operatorname*{lct}_{P}(\mathbb{P}^{2},C_{d}):=\{s>0:\text{the function } \frac{1}{\left\vert f\right\vert ^{2s}}\text{ is integrable around }P\}. \] \textit{I. Cheltsov} in [J. Geom. Anal. 27, No. 3, 2302--2338 (2017; Zbl 1386.14111)] gave the five lowest values of log canonical thresholds among the all of such curves \(C_{d},\) \(d\geq3.\) The author describes the sixth one which is equal to \((2d-7)/(d^{2} -4d+1).\)
