MAG-7 | Cinquedea (Minimal Wear)

The MAG-7 | Cinquedea (Minimal Wear) is a Classified shotgun skin with patterned glass panels and a red grip and pump. Minimal Wear keeps the ornate artwork looking nearly intact while trimming the Factory New premium.

Design

Valve built this finish as decoration first: patterned glass panels wrap the body like stained-glass windows, and a red grip and pump anchor the palette with a warm accent. Its in-game line delivers a wink — "Whatever you paid for this, it wasn't enough."

MAG-7 | Cinquedea (Minimal Wear) Float and Wear

Minimal Wear spans a float of 0.07 to 0.15. The odd mark may creep onto the edges, but the glass panels stay bright and the red grip holds its saturation. On this decorative finish it reads very close to top grade, so it's a sensible way to keep the look while saving on the Cinquedea's steep entry price.

MAG-7 | Cinquedea Rarity

Rarity: Classified, the pink grade. It ranks directly below Covert and second-highest among the standard weapon tiers — a genuinely uncommon finish to unbox, and the top rarity the MAG-7 offers.

MAG-7 | Cinquedea Case and Collection

Part of The Canals Collection, this finish arrived with the Operation Shattered Web update in November 2019. No weapon case backs it; the Classified tier drops at about three percent (shared across the tier), and the regular skin circulates through the collection's drops rather than unboxing.

MAG-7 | Cinquedea Patterns

No pattern lottery applies here. The glass-panel artwork lands identically on every unit, so the paint seed is irrelevant and there's no rare or blue-gem copy to search for. Two examples differ only in their wear grade and float value.

StatTrak & Souvenir

A StatTrak edition was never made, since StatTrak is minted through cases and this finish never shipped in one. There's no Souvenir form either — Souvenir weapons are distributed solely in Major-tournament packages, and the Cinquedea never featured in a Major, so only the regular finish is available.

MAG-7 | Cinquedea Price

Minimal Wear slots just below Factory New on the ladder while looking almost the same, making it a slightly softer way into a grail-tier MAG-7 finish. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Does Minimal Wear look close to Factory New?

Very close. The glass panels stay vivid at Minimal Wear and the red grip keeps its punch, with any wear confined to a few edges you'd have to look for. For a decorative finish this pricey, it's a popular way to get nearly the top-grade appearance while shaving off some of the cost.

What does the Cinquedea's name mean?

A cinquedea is a broad, ornate Renaissance short sword, prized as much for its decoration as for combat. The name fits a finish built around patterned glass panels and a bold grip — Valve leaning into an old-world, artistic theme that turns a plain shotgun into something closer to a display piece.

Is the Cinquedea worth the price?

It depends on your goals. As the MAG-7's only Classified finish from a case-free collection, it carries genuine rarity and a distinctive look, which appeals to collectors. For pure gameplay it's a lot to spend on a shotgun, so the value is really in owning the standout, highest-rarity skin for the model.
