Following the posting on the Central Bureau's Transient Object Confirmation Page about a possible Nova in Sgr (TOCP Designation: PNV J18033275-2816054), I performed some follow-up of this object through a 0.43-m f/6.8 astrograph + CCD from MPC Code Q62 (iTelescope Observatory, Siding Spring). On images taken on September 28.4, 2015 I can confirm the presence of an optical counterpart with R-filtered CCD magnitude 9.5 at coordinates: R.A. = 18 03 32.77, Decl.= -28 16 05.3 (equinox 2000.0; UCAC-4 catalogue reference stars).
