History
The manuscript was carefully written by John Tarchaniota. Auger Busbecq brought it, together with codex 425, from Constantinople to Vienna. The manuscript was examined by Treschow, Alter, and Birch.[3] Alter used it in his edition of NT, vol 2, pp. 789-853. Gregory saw it in 1887.[2]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Austrian National Library (Theol. gr. 303) in Vienna.[1]
