It was split in two volumes. The first volume has Gospels on 199 leaves with size 20.6 cm by 16 cm. The second volume containing Acts and Epistles on 189 leaves with size 21.2 by 15.2 cm. The codex contains entire of the New Testament, except last its book - Apocalypse. It has also some lacunae.[2]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, with their τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. The text of the Gospels has also another division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections (in Mark 234 sections, the last numbered section in 16:9), with references to the Eusebian Canons.[5]
It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, the Eusebian Canon tables, prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before every Gospel, (lectionary markings and αναγνωσεις were added by a later hand), subscriptions at the end of each book, numbers of στιχοι (in James and Pauline epistles).[5][6]
In 1 John 5:6 it has textual variant δι' ὕδατος καὶ πνεύματος (through water and spirit) together with the manuscripts 241, 463, 945, 1241, 1831, 1877*, 1891.[9][n 1]
The manuscript was dated by Gregory to the 12th century (with some hesitation).[4] Currently it has been assigned by the INTF to the 11th century.[2][3]
