History

The manuscript was slightly examined and described by Scholz, Paulin Martin, and C. R. Gregory (1885). Herman C. Hoskier examined and collated its text in the Book of Revelation.
It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz. Formerly it was labelled by 116a, 136p, and 53r. In 1908 Gregory gave the number 467 to it.
It is currently housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 59) in Paris.
