Souvenir Dual Berettas | Polished Malachite (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

The skin is easy to spot by its green malachite swirls running across the frames and grips, paired with silver details. Minimal Wear keeps the stone pattern and the shine almost untouched, with at most faint marks on sharp edges that are hard to see in a match. It gives nearly the full look at a grade a step below the cleanest.

Item type: pistol. Industrial Grade is the second tier from the bottom: common skins from drops and collections.

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

Other qualities of this skin: Well-Worn.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

Both grips are covered in a glossy malachite pattern of swirling concentric bands in light and dark green, matching the ceramic topcoat mentioned in the item description. The frames carry the same green stone texture, while the slides are dark metal with green malachite panels along the top.

Tiny scuffs may appear on the sharpest edges, such as the slide tops and the muzzles. The malachite pattern on the grips and frames remains fully intact. At normal viewing distance the copy is practically indistinguishable from Factory New. The silver trigger guards and the stone texture still look clean.

Minimal Wear wear: float 0.07–0.15

The whole float range of Souvenir Dual Berettas | Polished Malachite is 0–0.8; Minimal Wear takes the 0.07–0.15 segment (10% of the scale). Within the range, copies with a lower float look cleaner and are valued higher.

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.

Which stickers suit it

Green, silver, holo and gold stickers echo the malachite and the polished trigger guards. Placements on the slides sit on the darker metal and stand out cleanly without hiding the stone pattern on the grips.

What to look at before you buy

• Check where the float sits within the chosen wear, since a low float in a grade keeps more of the malachite banding.
• Inspect the slide tops and muzzles first, as these are the parts that lose paint earliest.
• Look at the grip corners to see whether the stone pattern is still intact where it matters most visually.
• Note any applied stickers or name tag and decide whether they fit the green finish.

Who should buy Minimal Wear

• Players who want a near-perfect look without paying for the cleanest grade.
• Sticker crafters, since the minor edge marks do not affect sticker placements.
• Conclusion: almost the full look at a more reasonable grade.
