The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Johann Martin Augustin Scholz, who slightly examined its text in Book of Acts. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1886.[4] The Greek text of Apocalypse was examined by Herman C. Hoskier.

Formerly it was labeled by 149^a, 349^p, and 180^r. In 1908 Gregory gave the number 620 to it.[1]

The manuscript currently is housed at the Laurentian Library (Conv. Soppr. 150), at Florence.[2]
