Souvenir MAC-10 | Gold Brick (Minimal Wear)

Skin overview

Gold Brick is built on one idea: a gold box set on a grey frame, with grooved lines running along its side. At Minimal Wear the only change from a fresh copy is a few faint marks on sharp edges, which are hard to spot during a match. The shine stays almost complete at a lower grade.

Item type: smg. The weapon is available only on the Terrorist side. Restricted sits in the middle of the rarity scale: noticeably rarer than Mil-Spec, yet not truly rare.

Anodized Multicolored: several colours in the metal coating; it wears little, the colours only dull with use.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Field-Tested, Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred.

Appearance in Minimal Wear

The receiver, the main box of the weapon, is finished in yellow-gold anodizing with two engraved lines and a raised panel along its side, and the edges carry a slightly darker tone. The threaded barrel tip stays dark, while the magazine, grip, trigger guard and folded wire stock remain neutral grey metal.

Small specks of wear can appear on the sharpest corners of the receiver and along the top edge. The side surface and the engraving stay clean. At normal distance in game the skin is practically indistinguishable from Factory New. The magazine and grip show no visible change.

Minimal Wear quality — float range 0.07–0.15

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

Gold, holo gold and black stickers sit well on the yellow receiver and keep the single-colour idea intact. Placing them on the flat side area above or below the engraved lines avoids covering the detailing. Busy multicolour stickers tend to clash with the solid gold.

What to check before buying

• Look at where the float sits within its wear grade, since a low-float copy of a worn grade can look close to the cleaner one.
• Inspect the receiver corners, top edge and raised side panel, as these lose the gold first.
• The finish is a solid colour, so the pattern does not change the look and is not worth paying extra for.
• StatTrak™ copies do not exist, while Souvenir copies come with preapplied stickers that change the look of the receiver.

Who the Minimal Wear quality suits

• Players who want the near-full shine in matches at a lower grade.
• Buyers who do not inspect edges closely and value the overall look.
• A practical alternative to Factory New with almost the same appearance.
