Souvenir CZ75-Auto | Circaetus (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

At Minimal Wear the Circaetus keeps its whole drawing: the beige and slate striping on the slide, the long magazine and the orange bird on the grip. Any marks are small specks near the muzzle or on the slide edges, hard to spot from the first-person view. This grade gives a clean-looking copy without chasing a perfect one.

Item type: pistol. Mil-Spec Grade is the lowest rarity found in cases and the most common one among them.

Custom Paint Job: hand-painted across the whole body; this is the type where wear shows most, the artwork rubs down to metal.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred. The same quality also exists as the StatTrak™ version.

How the skin looks in Minimal Wear

The slide and frame are painted pale sand-beige with dark slate feather-like stripes running back along the slide. Toward the rear of the slide and on top of the grip the pattern becomes a bird of prey in orange and red, its fiery plumage spilling down the grip.

Small specks may appear on the muzzle, the top edge of the slide and the magazine base. The stripes, the bird and the snake are fully intact. At normal distance the copy is hard to tell from Factory New. The grip and the sides of the slide stay clean.

Minimal Wear quality — float range 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir CZ75-Auto | Circaetus is 0–0.9; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (9% of the scale). The lower the float within the range, the cleaner the surface looks and the higher a copy is usually priced.

Origin of the skin

The skin’s collection is The Snakebite Collection with 17 skins in total.

The source is Snakebite Case.

Souvenir version

This is the Souvenir version: such copies dropped to tournament viewers in souvenir packages; the team stickers and signatures on them cannot be removed or chosen. Souvenir items never carry StatTrak™. There is also the regular version without tournament stickers.

Stickers and crafts

Orange, red, black and beige stickers match the bird and the feather stripes. Placing them along the slide keeps the bird on the grip visible, and bird or snake motifs tie in with the theme.

What to check before buying

• Check the float position within the grade, because the pale base shows wear earlier than darker finishes.
• Look at the slide edges, the muzzle and the magazine base, since these lose paint first.
• Inspect the orange bird on the grip to see how much of the plumage is still intact.
• Check for applied stickers or a name tag, and whether you want a StatTrak™ or Souvenir copy.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want a clean-looking pistol in game.
• Buyers who accept tiny specks in exchange for a cheaper grade than Factory New.
• A practical balance of look and cost.
