M4A1-S | Moss Quartz

Origin Story

The M4A1-S | Moss Quartz, released on November 19, 2019, with Operation Shattered Web, is a distinctive dark green metallic skin from The Norse Collection. Its design features a crystallizing mask that creates a unique pattern across the weapon's surface. While it is an Industrial Grade skin, its origin in The Norse Collection means new supply is limited to rare collection drops, making it a less common find.

Drop Chance

M4A1-S | Moss Quartz is Industrial Grade, a common skin tier, one step above Consumer Grade. It can drop as an end-of-match reward from active competitive play on the Norse Collection item pool. Map drops follow a weighted rarity system that heavily favors common grades, so Industrial Grade drops are uncommon and Valve doesn't publish per-skin odds. There are 3 other Industrial Grade skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. Most copies enter the market through trade-up contracts or direct purchase at a listed seller's price.

Skin Condition

Float range 0 to 0.5. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn. StatTrak is not available for this skin.

• Factory New ($190.00): The dark green metallic surfaces are most vibrant and uniform, with the crystallized pattern clean and continuous across the receiver, handguard, and suppressor.
• Minimal Wear ($62.81): Light edge wear or small scratches can begin to appear on the muzzle, silencer edges, and magazine edges, but the dark green remains vivid.
• Field-Tested ($37.67): The dark green metallic color starts to look marginally duller, with more visible wear on the front barrel, silencer, handguard edges, and magwell.
• Well-Worn ($43.37): Dark green anodized surfaces show noticeable wear, particularly on the silencer, barrel, and front/edge areas, with more of the underlying material showing through.
