Nova | Moon in Libra (Battle-Scarred)

The Nova | Moon in Libra (Battle-Scarred) is a Consumer Grade shotgun skin with a blue body and a zodiac motif, in its most worn grade. It's the lowest-cost way into the celestial design, trading surface condition for the cheapest entry price.

Design

The finish coats the Nova in a deep blue and prints a zodiac pattern over it through a hydrographic, running the astrological imagery along the shotgun. It's Valve-made, and the skin carries a playful in-game line that suits the theme: "Today's a great day to find romance and kill your rivals."

Nova | Moon in Libra (Battle-Scarred) Float and Wear

This finish is float-capped at 0.50 rather than the usual 1.0, which is unusually low, so even Battle-Scarred copies stay far milder than a skin that runs to the full extreme. Wear is the heaviest the finish reaches — clear scuffing and paint loss across the body — but the cap means it never looks truly trashed, and the zodiac print stays readable.

Nova | Moon in Libra Rarity

Rarity: Consumer Grade — the white tier that anchors the bottom of the standard weapon grades. As the most common band in the game, it keeps this finish cheap and abundant even at its most worn grade.

Nova | Moon in Libra Case and Collection

Moon in Libra is a Gods and Monsters Collection finish, released with Operation Bloodhound in May 2015. That collection never came with a weapon case, so the skin reaches players through collection drops and the market instead of being pulled from a case.

Nova | Moon in Libra Patterns

No random rolls come into play. The zodiac motif is a fixed design placed identically on every copy, so there's no paint seed to gamble on and no rare pattern to seek out. Two examples differ only in how worn they are and in their exact float value.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There is no StatTrak Moon in Libra in any grade. StatTrak weapons are minted inside cases, and this finish came from The Gods and Monsters Collection, which had none. A Souvenir version doesn't exist either, because Souvenir items are produced only through Major-tournament packages and the collection was never distributed at a Major.

Nova | Moon in Libra Price

Battle-Scarred is the cheapest grade of this finish — the entry-level way to run the zodiac look for players who care more about the design than the surface. On an already budget Consumer Grade skin, it's about as low as the price goes. It's available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is the Battle-Scarred Moon in Libra still recognizable?

Yes. Even with the heaviest wear the finish allows, the blue base and zodiac print keep the skin clearly identifiable in a match. Battle-Scarred is about accepting visible scuffing for the lowest price rather than losing the design, and the low float cap keeps it from ever looking fully destroyed.

Why doesn't the Battle-Scarred version look completely destroyed?

Because the finish caps at just 0.50 float instead of the full 1.0, its Battle-Scarred copies never reach the extreme wear most skins can show. That unusually low ceiling means even the worst grade of Moon in Libra stays relatively mild, keeping the zodiac artwork legible on the shotgun.

Is Battle-Scarred the cheapest Moon in Libra?

Yes, it's the lowest rung on this finish's price ladder. Battle-Scarred trades surface quality for the smallest outlay, and since the skin is Consumer Grade to begin with, that makes it one of the cheapest ways to put a themed finish on your Nova. Cleaner grades cost a little more.
