description

The manuscript was written in two consecutive columns on a scroll. The back is blank. The noun sacra are abbreviated. There are no signs of punctuation.

The Greek text of the Codex represents the Alexandrian text type (or rather a Proto-Alexandrian). Aland placed it in Category I a. The manuscript represents an independent text. There are very many similarities with the Codex Sinaiticus , but there are also clear deviations. There are no unique readings.

The manuscript is currently held in the Glasgow University Library (MS Gen 1026) in Glasgow .
