Written in one column per page, 24 lines per page (16.3 by 10.2 cm), in black ink.[2] It contains Epistula ad Carpianum, Eusebian tables, tables of κεφαλαια, Prolegomena, pictures, κεφαλαια, τιτλοι, Ammonian Sections, Eusebian Canons, and Euthalian apparatus to the Acts and General epistles.[3] Subscriptions were added by a later hand.[2] Text of the pericope John 7:53-8:11 omitted without any mark.[2]

History
Radulph or Roland de Rivo presented this manuscript to the monastery of Virgin Mary in the village Corsendonck near Turnhout. Later it belonged to the monastery of Dominican Order in Basel. It was used by Erasmus in his second edition of Novum Testamentum in 1519.[2] It had been collated by J. Walker for Bentley. This collation was never published.[3] It was also collatted by Wettstein. The manuscript was also examined by Treschow, Alter and Wordsworth[2]. The manuscript was not cited in Nestle-Aland editions of Greek New Testament.
Alter used it in his edition of the Greek text of the New Testament.[6]
The codex is located now at the Austrian National Library (Cod. Suppl. Gr. 52) at Vienna.[1]
