CS2 skin collector pays $45,000 for boring brown skin – but for a good reason

by

As an enthusiastic collector of CS2 skins, I’ve splurged a whopping $45,000 for the coveted MAC-10 “Bronzer”. This item stands out because it boasts the lowest float value ever recorded in the annals of Counter-Strike 2 history.

The user ‘Altair’ on Steam obtained an extremely low wear level for the MAC-10 skin, with a float value of 0.00000000010431. In terms of the skin market, ‘float’ represents the quality or condition of the weapon, where lower numbers mean better condition. Notably, this is the lowest float skin ever recorded in Counter-Strike history.

Although the MAC-10 Bronzer comes with a high price tag, it lacks flashy elements. Its surface is uniformly dark bronze without any noticeable patterns or distinctive visual features. Typically, you can find it for just a few cents on Steam Market. However, due to its rare ultra-low float, it has become a sought-after collector’s item.

In the world of Counter-Strike, low-float skins have traditionally held high value. However, an unexpected discovery in CS2 has unearthed a collection of skins featuring float values that were previously considered unattainable.

Earlier in 2025, an AUG Eye of Zaphu with a float of 0.0000000019395 sold for over $100,000.

In April, the MAC-10 Bronzer became a part of the ‘Radiant’ Collection. Initially, it doesn’t have significant worth due to its standard condition. However, this sale demonstrates the immense importance placed on the float value by high-end collectors in their world.

By April, it’s been roughly estimated that the market value for CS (Counter-Strike) skin trading reached a staggering $4.99 billion. The primary factor influencing prices is the level of demand, which in turn grows as more players join the game, making certain skins increasingly scarce.

Even though the majority of CS2 players don’t invest close to this amount in skins, the high-end market within CS2 economy is thriving, witnessing an increasing number of remarkable trades at new record levels.
