According to C. R. Gregory the manuscript was written in the 15th century.[5] Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 14th century.[4]
It was described by Montana, who sent a description to Kelly.[8]
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (209a, 475r)[8] and Gregory (237a, 475r).[5] In 1908 Gregory gave the number 921 to it.[1]
Formerly it was classified as lectionary under the siglum l 595.[3]
