The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 396 parchment leaves (20.5 cm by 15.5 cm), with lacunae (Matthew 1:1-8; Mark 1:1-7; Luke 1:1-8; Luke 24:50-John 1:12). The text is written in one column per page, in 20 lines per page.[2]

There are also references to the Eusebian Canons (in Matthew and Mark in the same line as Ammonian Sections – see codex 112).[3][n 1]

It contains Prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, lectionary markings at the margin, incipits, αναγνωσεις (Matthew 116; Mark 71, Luke 114, John 67), subscriptions at the end of each Gospel, and numbers of στιχοι.[3]
