Title from Hirsch-Zacour Catalogue.
Collation: 1⁴( -1) 2³ 3² 4-13⁴, 14⁴( -2); folios 44, 47, 60, 65, 77, and 80 are tipped in. Quires are misbound, as is evident from the catchwords, lower center of last verso (some trimmed away).

Layout: Written in 19 long lines; ruled in lead; prickings visible.
Script: Written in a Gothic bookhand by various scribes; some hands, on the final two folios, are slightly later.
Origin: Written in Aragon (Spain) in the second half of the 13th-century; the documents themselves are earlier in date than the present copies; the latest dated document is dated January 9, 1256 (f. 18r).
Binding: Disbound; sewn, with paste on spine, but no binding; sewing, probably not original, is very delicate; many quires pulling loose, and several are practically detached from the rest of the codex.
Decoration: Red initials with brown filigree, showing typical Spanish features, such as "harping" of the filigree; rubrication; occasional marginalia.
