What makes a copy Souvenir

The Souvenir PP-Bizon | Brass (Minimal Wear, MW) is the Souvenir copy of this skin — the same Mil-Spec Grade finish, handed out in a souvenir package at a Major rather than pulled from a case. Brass swaps sections of the weapon for actual brass plating rather than relying on a painted graphic, a design credited to Valve. 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 PP-Bizon | Brass

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

It belongs to The Dust 2 Collection, tied to the "Out with the old, in with the new" update from November 2013.

Can a Souvenir PP-Bizon | Brass 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 PP-Bizon | Brass?

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.
