Description
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 246 parchment leaves (size 34.4 cm by 25 cm), with some lacunae.[3][6] It lacks texts of Matthew 16:4-17:6.[6]
The text is written in two columns per page, 50 lines per page.[3]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), with their τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top.[6] There is no a division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections, no references to the Eusebian Canons.[6]
It contains double Prolegomena, lists of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents), and a commentary of Theophylact.[6]

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[7]
It was not examined by using the Claremont Profile Method.[8]
History

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (745) and Gregory (727). It was examined and described by Paulin Martin.[9] Gregory saw the manuscript in 1885.[6]
The manuscript is now housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 179) in Paris.[3][4]
