Nova | Army Sheen (Factory New)

The Nova | Army Sheen (Factory New) is a Consumer Grade shotgun skin wrapped in a metallic foil stamped with a camouflage pattern, giving a cool gray sheen across the body. Factory New is the top grade here, showing the foil at its most reflective.

Design

Army Sheen keeps things military-plain: a metallic foil covers the shell and is stamped with a camo pattern, so the gray surface catches light with a subtle sheen rather than a loud graphic. It's a Valve-made finish, and it carries the in-game line "Remember your training."

Nova | Army Sheen (Factory New) Float and Wear

The finish spans a float range of 0.00–0.30, and Factory New sits at the very bottom of it. At this grade the foil reads smooth and reflective, the camo stamp is crisp, and there's no scuffing to dull the metallic gray. It's the sharpest this budget skin gets.

Nova | Army Sheen Rarity

Rarity: Consumer Grade — the white tier at the base of the weapon-skin ladder. It's the most common grade in the game, which keeps the finish cheap and easy to pick up.

Nova | Army Sheen Case and Collection

This skin belongs to The Ancient Collection, which debuted with Operation Broken Fang in December 2020. The collection isn't tied to a weapon case, so copies come from collection drops and the market rather than from unboxing a case.

Nova | Army Sheen Patterns

There's no random pattern roll on this finish — the camo stamp lands the same way on every copy, so there's no paint seed or "blue gem" to chase. Wear and float are all that separate one from another.

StatTrak & Souvenir

There's no StatTrak version of this Nova. It does exist as a Souvenir finish, though: Souvenir copies come from Major-tournament souvenir packages, first appearing in the Stockholm 2021 Ancient Souvenir Package and later handed out through other Major packages over the years. The page here is the regular, non-Souvenir version.

Nova | Army Sheen Price

Factory New sits at the top of the Army Sheen ladder, but because the whole finish is a Consumer Grade skin the price stays firmly in budget territory even at the best grade. It's a cheap way to add a tidy gray look to the Nova. Available to buy on Skin.Land with instant delivery and no hidden fees.

FAQ

Is the Factory New Army Sheen worth it?

It's the top grade, showing the metallic foil at its most reflective with a crisp camo stamp. Since the whole finish is budget-priced, the jump to Factory New costs little in absolute terms, so it's an easy upgrade if you want the tidiest version of an already-cheap skin.

Which gloves match the Army Sheen?

Its neutral gray palette is easy to pair, so gray, olive or muted military-tone gloves fit best — anything camo-flavored or field-green keeps the tactical theme intact. Because the base is understated, you can also let brighter gloves lead without clashing, giving you plenty of loadout freedom.

Does the Army Sheen come with StatTrak?

No. This finish has no StatTrak edition, so there's no confirmed-kill counter to be found on it. What it does have is a Souvenir version from Major-tournament packages; the standard copy sold here is the regular, non-Souvenir finish, which is the most common way to own the skin.
