Lunar Flash Last Wednesday?

A fellow ASH member was observing the moon last Wednesday (September 11th) with 20x80's and at 23:49 UT (7:49 p.m. EDT) noticed a fifth or sixth magnitude flash (similar to 41 Librae in brightness) about 10 degrees to the dark side of the terminator in the vicinity of Posidonius. Was anyone videotaping the moon at this time?
