The codex contains incomplete text of Revelation of John (7:16-8:12), with a commentary of Andreas's (see Uncial 051), on 4 parchment leaves (29.5 by 23 cm). The text was written in two columns per page, 27 lines per page.[1]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margins, and the τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also another division according to the λογοι.[2]
