We report the discovery of a possible nova in M 31 on two 10x60s stacked unfiltered CCD images obtained a 40-cm Cassegrain telescope with a focal reducer (F/5.1) equipped with a 2184 x 1472 pixel ST-10XME CCD camera (pixel size 6.8 microns square) at the Athens University Observatory, Greece on 2009 June 30.045 UT and July 1.049 UT with magnitudes of 17.7 and 17.5, respectively. The position of the nova candidate is RA = 00h42m10.36s, Dec = +41o12'19.9" (J2000, accuracy 0.3"), which is 383" west and 229" south of the core of M 31.
