The codex contains the text of the Acts of the Apostles, Catholic epistles, and Pauline epistles on 302 parchment leaves (28 cm by 23.5 cm) with some lacunae (Acts 1:1-12; 25:21-26:18; Philemon). Written in three columns per page, in 28 lines per page.[1][3]

History
The manuscript came from the monastery of St. Micheal de Troyna in Sicily.[2] The manuscript was examined by Birch, Scholz.[3] It was partially collated by Rinck. According to Scrivener it is an important copy,[2] but according to Gregory its text is "schlecht" (poor).[3]
It is currently housed at the Biblioteca Marciana (Gr. Z. 11 (379)) in Venice.[1]
