Souvenir Nova | Sand Dune (Field-Tested)

What makes a copy Souvenir

The Souvenir Nova | Sand Dune (Field-Tested, FT) is the Souvenir copy of this skin — the same finish, handed out in a souvenir package at a Major rather than pulled from a case. Sand Dune is built for a tactical loadout: the Nova's parts are painted in solid block colors following a dune scheme, with zero graphics — just muted desert grays and tans. Field-Tested spans 0.15–0.38 on the float scale — the middle grade, and usually the easiest one to find on the market.

What the stickers do to the price of the Nova | Sand Dune

Souvenir packages drop to viewers and attendees during a Major, each holding a skin from that tournament's collection. A souvenir copy carries up to four stickers from the match it came out of — the two teams, that match's MVP and the event itself — applied for good. A Souvenir skin is never StatTrak™ — the two are mutually exclusive.

Where it comes from

On a souvenir copy the stickers usually matter more than the finish. A package from a famous match, or one carrying a retired star player's sticker, can be worth many times an ordinary copy at the same exterior, while one from a forgotten group-stage match trades close to the plain version.

FAQ

This finish is a member of The Italy Collection, released with the November 2013 "Out with the old, in with the new" update.

Can a Souvenir Nova | Sand Dune 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 Nova | Sand Dune?

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.
