The manuscript once belonged to M. Aloys. Canonici, together with the manuscripts 522, 523, and 524, then to Bandinelli from Venice, and in 1817 was acquired by the Bodleian Library.
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament minuscule manuscripts by F. H. A. Scrivener (491) and C. R. Gregory (525). Gregory saw it in 1883.
It is currently housed at the Bodleian Library (MS. Canon. Gr. 122) in Oxford.
