What makes a copy Souvenir

The Souvenir M4A1-S | Control Panel (Minimal Wear, MW) is the Souvenir copy of this skin — the same Classified finish, handed out in a souvenir package at a Major rather than pulled from a case. At its core the finish is a blue base packed with hand-painted dials and switches — an industrial, tech-console theme that gives the M4A1-S the face of a control board. Minimal Wear covers 0.07–0.15 on the float scale, a step below Factory New, with wear that stays hard to spot at a glance.

What the stickers do to the price of the M4A1-S | Control Panel

A souvenir copy exists only because someone opened a souvenir package during a Major. It comes with up to four stickers tied to one specific match — the two line-ups, the MVP of that match and the event logo — and those stickers are permanent. A Souvenir skin is never StatTrak™ — the two are mutually exclusive.

Where it comes from

What a souvenir copy is worth depends less on the finish than on whose stickers it carries. A legendary player or a famous final pushes a copy well above the plain version; an anonymous match leaves it close to one.

FAQ

This finish is part of The 2018 Nuke Collection, which arrived with the FACEIT 2018 update in September 2018.

Can a Souvenir M4A1-S | Control Panel be StatTrak?

No. Souvenir and StatTrak™ are mutually exclusive — a copy is one or the other, never both, and neither can be added to a skin after it drops.

Can the stickers be removed from a Souvenir M4A1-S | Control Panel?

No. Souvenir stickers are part of the copy and cannot be scraped off, unlike stickers a player applies themselves. That is why two souvenir copies of one skin at the same exterior can be priced far apart.
