Origin Story
The Nova | Green Apple was released on July 1, 2014, as part of Operation Breakout and is a member of The Cobblestone Collection. It features a solid green and black color scheme, with individual parts spray-painted to achieve its distinct appearance. As part of the prestigious Cobblestone Collection, which includes high-value items like the AWP | Dragon Lore, the Green Apple Nova holds a niche as a collector's item within this legacy series. Its visual simplicity and connection to a discontinued collection make it primarily of interest to those completing Cobblestone sets.
Drop Chance
Nova | Green Apple is Industrial Grade, a common skin tier, one step above Consumer Grade. It has appeared across 10 tournament packages, most recently the ESL One Katowice 2015 Cobblestone Souvenir Package, Krakow 2017 Cobblestone Souvenir Package, and MLG Columbus 2016 Cobblestone Souvenir Package.
Souvenir Packages are awarded to viewers watching live Major matches on the corresponding map, not opened from cases, so Valve doesn't publish per-skin drop odds. Each package contains one item from The Cobblestone Collection, with rarity tiers drawn on a weighted system that heavily favors common grades, meaning Industrial Grade skins like Green Apple are a small fraction of total package contents. There are 3 other Industrial Grade skins in the collection competing for the same drop slot. New copies only enter the market when a recipient chooses to open their package, so supply trickles in over time even after the tournament ends.
Skin Condition
Float range 0 to 0.3. Exteriors: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested. StatTrak is not available for this skin. Factory New ($14.56): The bright, saturated green paint is fully intact on the receiver and stock, with minimal visible scratches on edges. Minimal Wear ($13.14): The green remains bright and largely intact, but small chips or hairline scratches may appear on sharp edges of the barrel, pump, and buttstock. Field-Tested ($13.14): Noticeably more edge wear and scattered scratches appear on the pump, barrel edges, and stock corners, with the base metal starting to show in high-contact zones.
Model
Green Apple uses the legacy Nova model, introduced with Operation Breakout on July 1, 2014. The inspect animation and third-person appearance match the original CS:GO version.
