Description

The codex contains the complete text of the Book of Revelation with much non-biblical material (homilies of Basil the Great, Gregory of Nyssa and others) on 20 parchment leaves (27.5 cm by 19 cm).

The text is written in one column per page, 35 lines per page,[3] in about 36 letters per line.[4] The uncial letter of the codex are written in a peculiar form with special attention. "The uncials being of a peculiar kind, leaning a little to the right; they hold a sort of middle place between square and oblong characters.... The breathings and accents are primâ manu, and pretty correct..."[5]
