AK-47 | Wintergreen (Minimal Wear)

This is the AK-47 | Wintergreen in Minimal Wear (MW), and its defining trait is that the solid paint is barely touched by wear. The skin is Mil-Spec, from The Boreal Collection. No case contains the rifle, and The Boreal Collection sits on the weekly playtime reward list in CS2.

What the AK-47 | Wintergreen looks like in Minimal Wear

The rifle is painted entirely in a saturated grass green: receiver, dust cover, gas tube, barrel and grip. Stock, handguard and pad stay wooden and dark brown, and the magazine is black. There is no pattern and no lettering. The paint is smooth and one flat color.

In Minimal Wear the coat is even. Wear shows only along the edges, where a light metallic shine peeks through. For a solid fill this is the best arrangement after Factory New: the color reads cleanly, and the signs of use do not catch the eye. Wear is set at drop, and solid green paint does not rub off afterward.

Where the AK-47 | Wintergreen came from

The AK-47 | Wintergreen has no Workshop submission: it was drawn inside Valve. In Valve's catalog it is finish number 1283. The Boreal Collection was released on March 31, 2025, and the skin has been part of it from launch. On the same day Valve added the collection to the weekly reward list.

What to check before buying

What separates one listing of the AK-47 | Wintergreen from another:

• float within the 0.07 to 0.15 band;


• stickers on the body of the AK-47 | Wintergreen and a name tag, if there is one.

Every copy of the AK-47 | Wintergreen carries the same pattern. The 0.07 to 0.15 band is tight on this skin, and the extreme listings differ only in the number. It takes a small share of the skin's scale: 0.08 of 0.75.

What the AK-47 | Wintergreen costs in Minimal Wear

Within the skin the wears are ordered like this:

• Factory New costs 2.4 times more than Minimal Wear;


• Field-Tested is almost three times cheaper;


• Well-Worn is 2.3 times cheaper, and Battle-Scarred 3.2 times.

Among Mil-Spec AK-47s this skin sits near the bottom: only AK-47 | Uncharted is cheaper. Above it are Crossfade, Elite Build and Green Laminate, and Black Laminate has the widest gap. The two green rifles show how far prices have drifted apart: Green Laminate costs eleven times what Wintergreen does.

Getting the AK-47 | Wintergreen

No CS2 case contains the AK-47 | Wintergreen. It is handed out as a drop for hours played, while The Boreal Collection remains on the reward list. The route without buying is a trade-up: ten skins of the rank below from the same collection, with the AK-47 | Wintergreen coming out.

StatTrak and Souvenir

The AK-47 | Wintergreen has no StatTrak version and no Souvenir Packages.

Stickers and craft on the AK-47 | Wintergreen

Green fill with no pattern leaves plenty of clean field on the receiver and dust cover. Dark stickers get lost there, while light and contrasting ones read at once. The wood of the stock and handguard goes with golden and warm tones. Cold blues look harsh beside the grass-green metal.

Who this wear suits

The AK-47 | Wintergreen in Minimal Wear is worth buying in these situations:

• you want a single-color AK with no visible wear, but without the Factory New premium;


• you are building a set around green and brown wood;


• listings with wear on the edges do not suit you, and Field-Tested is already too rubbed.
