We report the discovery of a possible supernova (mag 19.7) on 37.5-min co-added unfiltered CCD images (limiting mag 21.5) taken on 2011 Jan. 30.753 UT with the 0.60-m Schmidt telescope at Konkoly Observatory, Piszkésteto, Hungary. The transient was observed again at mag 19.3 on 2011. Feb. 1.733 UT. The new object is located at R.A. = 01h09m52s.97, Decl. = +15d59'43".3 (equinox 2000.0), which is 0".6 east of the center of the presumed host galaxy SDSS J010952.96+155942.5 (r=20.56 mag, photo-z = 0.03 from SDSS).
