History
The manuscript came from Byzantium. According to the subscription it was given in 1439 to the Library of Canons Regular at Verona by Dorotheus Archbishop of Mitylene, when he came to the Council of Florence in 1438. The manuscript once belonged to Jean Hurault de Boistaillé (like codices 9, 203, 263, 301, 306, 314). Then it belonged to Archbishop of Reims Le Tellier (1671–1710), like codices 11, 13.{{Cite book | last = Scrivener | first = Frederick Henry Ambrose | author-link = Frederick Henry Ambrose Scrivener |author2=Edward Miller | title = A Plain Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament | publisher = George Bell & Sons | year = 1894 | location = London | edition = 4 | volume = 1 | page = 192
It was used by Ludolph Küster in his edition of the Greek New Testament (as Paris 1).
It was examined by Griesbach and Scholz. Scholz examined only texts of Mark 1-4 and John 5-8. C. R. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1885.
The codex is currently located at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 91) at Paris.
