History
The manuscript was used by Walton in his Polyglot, and by Mill in his Novum Testamentum (as N. 2). Walton erroneously described it, and after him by Wettstein, as a part of the codex 58, which is a much later manuscript.[3] It was examined by Dobbin.[3] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1883.[4]
Formerly it was labelled by 37a and 43p. In 1908 Gregory gave the number 327 to it.[1]
The manuscript is currently housed at the New College (59) at Oxford.[2]
