History

Formerly it was held at the Athos peninsula in Great Lavra. Between 1643 and 1653 the manuscript was acquired for the collection of Pierre Séguier (1588-1672), the great-grandfather of Henri-Charles de Coislin, Bishop of Metz.^[4] It became part of the Fonds Coislin.

Bernard de Montfaucon was the first who described this manuscript. It was examined by Wettstein, Scholz, and Gregory (1885). The text of Revelation was collated by Hoskier (1929).

It is currently housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Coislin, Gr. 199) at Paris.^[1]
