Paris, BnF, lat. 3848A (Quesnel's Codex Trecopithoeanus) is a copy of the Collectio Quesnelliana.
It was at Beauvais in the 15th century and still there when Hardouin used the manuscript, as Vanspauwen pointed out (pace Kéry, Collections p. 27).
Contents
In addition to the Quesnelliana (on fol. 1-179?) it contains an appendix fol. 180v-188r (mainly conciliar canons but also a royal capitulary, Statuta ecclesiae antiqua, and JE 1743). Contrary to what Hoskin p. 113 claimed, it does contain letters of Leo I (cf. Vanspauwen p. 593).
