The codex contains the text of the New Testament, on 341 parchment leaves (size 22 cm by 16 cm) with only one lacuna (John 6:60-8:59). Lacuna in John 6:60-8:59 was supplemented by a later hand.[5]
The text is written in one column per page, 21 lines per page,[2] in very small letters.[5]
It contains Epistula ad Carpianum, the list of the κεφαλαια (table of contents) is placed only before the Gospel of Mark. The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), the numbers of whose are placed at the left margin, and their τιτλοι (titles) are given at the top. The text of the four Gospels is divided also into much smaller sections, the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 237 sections – the last numbered section in 16:15). The manuscript contains also the lectionary markings at the margin, and numerous pictures (among them portraits of the Evangelists).[4][5]
Scrivener dated it to the 11th or 12th century,[4] Gregory to the 11th century.[5] Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 12th century.[3]
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener in the third edition of his A Plain Introduction... in 1883.[8] Gregory saw the manuscript in 1887.[5]
