Written doubtless at Verona. Came to the Collège de Clermont presumably from the monastery of St Aubin at Angers, as suggested below (see CLA 8.1065). Entered the Meerman collection in 1764 and that of Sir Thomas Phillipps in 1824. Acquired by the Berlin Royal Library in 1887.

Script is an early Caroline minuscule of Veronese type by several scribes: a and open a; two scribes still use the Insular form of g; noteworthy is the use of uncial N with the first upright descending well below the line and the second comma-shaped (foll. 43 ff.); the roundish first hand recalls the script of parts of the Egino codex and Munich CLM 6402 (CLA 8.1057 and CLA 9.1281). Some corrections are apparently in the hand of the archdeacon Pacificus.
