M4A1-S | Moss Quartz (Field-Tested)

The M4A1-S | Moss Quartz (Field-Tested) is an Industrial Grade rifle skin with dark green metallic paint and a crystallized, mineral-like pattern. Field-Tested is the everyday, budget-friendly way to run it, with light honest wear the dark base mostly shrugs off.

Design

The design is understated: a crystallizing mask laid under dark green metallic paint, and the mask is what shapes the quartz-style veining that runs across the finish. Valve created it with a natural aesthetic rather than loud graphics, and it comes with a fitting in-game line: "Everyone wants to make an impact."

M4A1-S | Moss Quartz (Field-Tested) Float and Wear

With the skin's float running 0.00–0.50, Field-Tested occupies the broad middle at roughly 0.15–0.38. Here you'll spot some scratching along the edges and rails, but the deep green tone keeps most copies looking presentable, and the crystalline pattern still comes through. It's the grade most players land on for the balance of looks and cost.

M4A1-S | Moss Quartz Rarity

Rarity: Industrial Grade — the light-blue tier, one of the lower rungs on the standard weapon-grade ladder. It's a common, wallet-friendly grade rather than a prestige pull.

M4A1-S | Moss Quartz Case and Collection

Moss Quartz sits within The Norse Collection, released together with Operation Shattered Web in November 2019. The collection entered the game through that operation instead of a standalone weapon case, so supply mostly moves through the market rather than fresh unboxings.

M4A1-S | Moss Quartz Patterns

Because a crystallizing mask forms the pattern, the veining varies slightly across copies, so each one carries its own arrangement of the crystal texture. There's no ranked seed or phase to track down here — only float and that organic variation distinguish one rifle from the next.

StatTrak & Souvenir

You won't find a StatTrak Moss Quartz: StatTrak versions are seeded through weapon cases, and this collection finish isn't handed out that way, so no counter variant was ever made. Nor is there a Souvenir edition — those are produced solely from Major-tournament packages, and The Norse Collection has never been part of a Major drop.

M4A1-S | Moss Quartz Price

Field-Tested is the value sweet spot of the range, cheaper than Minimal Wear while holding much of the same character, which is a big part of why it's the popular pick. It reads premium among its peers yet won't break the bank. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does the Field-Tested Moss Quartz look worn?

A little, but not badly. Expect light scratching along the edges and rails on close inspection, while the dark green base hides most of it at a glance. The crystallized veining still carries the look, so a Field-Tested copy reads clearly as Moss Quartz in-game for a noticeably lower outlay.

Is Field-Tested the best value Moss Quartz?

For most buyers, yes. It costs meaningfully less than the cleaner grades while keeping the deep green and the crystal pattern recognizable, and it's the most common grade on the market. Well-Worn and Battle-Scarred go cheaper still if you don't mind heavier scuffing.

Which gloves go with Moss Quartz?

Its dark-green, earthy palette suits a natural loadout, so green or olive gloves are the obvious match, while black or gunmetal wraps keep things muted and let the mineral pattern carry the look. Anything with a cool, stony tone plays nicely with the quartz veining.
