M. Fraser, R. Kotak, and S. J. Smartt, Queen's University, Belfast, report that a spectrum (range 330-975 nm; resolution about 1000) of PSN J21440852+4614511 = 2012co was obtained on May 27.21 UT with the 4.2-m William Herschel Telescope (+ ISIS). The spectrum was cross-correlated with a library of supernova spectra via the "Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024); a good match was found to several normal type-Ia supernovae at z = 0.02, approximately 30 days after maximum light.
