History

The manuscript once belonged to Cardinal Mazarin (like codex 14, 305, 313, and 324).[2] It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).[4] It was examined and described by Paulin Martin.[5] C. R. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1885.[2]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 203) at Paris.[1]
