The codex contains a portions of the text of Gospel of Matthew, on 32 leaves (27 cm by 20 cm). Written in one column per page, 21 lines per column, in a large, attractive, and very precise uncial. The codex contains the Ammonian Sections, but there is no Eusebian Canons. It is palimpsest. The upper text is patristic written in minuscule hand, Chrysostom contributing has the largest share. The codex is located in the Trinity College, Dublin (K 3.4). The codex was exposed to chemicals by Tregelles in 1853.
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type, familiar to the Codex Sinaiticus. Aland placed it in Category III.
