Souvenir Nova | Yorkshire (Factory New)

Skin overview

Nova | Yorkshire is a Gunsmith finish in glossy bronze and gold paint, with a dark blued barrel and a ribbed gold section on the grip. In Factory New the gloss is unbroken, so the bronze stock and receiver catch the light evenly and the gold accents stay crisp.

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

Gunsmith: several techniques combined on one item; some parts rub off, others only dull.

The remaining qualities of this skin: Field-Tested.

Appearance in Factory New

The barrel is dark blued metal with a slight blue-violet sheen, ending in a black front sight, while the ribbed pump grip under it is black. The receiver is painted deep glossy bronze with thin gold lines along its edges, and the magazine tube cap stays plain silver metal.

The gloss is complete on every part, from the bronze receiver to the gold ribs of the grip. Edges and the stock heel show no chips at all. In game the bronze reads as rich and even, and the gold section stands out clearly against the dark stock. This grade is about keeping the polished look exactly as designed.

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, brown and black stickers, including holo or foil gold, blend well with the bronze body. Placing them on the receiver side keeps the classic look, while a single dark sticker on the stock keeps the gold accents in focus.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear range, since copies near the lower end look noticeably cleaner on the edges.
• Inspect the gold ribs on the grip and the receiver edges, as these are the first places where the paint chips.
• Souvenir copies come with stickers already applied, so check whether they suit the bronze and gold scheme.
• Look for an existing name tag or stickers on regular copies if you plan your own craft.

Who should buy Factory New

• Collectors who want the full gloss of bronze and gold without a single chip.
• Sticker crafters who need a clean base for gold or foil stickers.
• The choice for an untouched classic look.
