Eyeballing it from the image it looks slightly brighter than the star above it on the top edge of the frame which is V mag 13.7 (APASS)

Putting the 2SPOT spectrum through the SNID supernova identification program estimates that it was ~11 days from maximum then so possibly maximum around 25th? Plenty of time to go yet.
