Counter-Strike 2’smostexpensive skinhas been sold for a mouth-watering $1 million to an anonymous buyer.
The reason why it’s so expensive is that the 661 Case Hardened pattern is the most sought-after, and it being in Factory New and StatTrak makes it even more of a rarity.
Just to get the 661 pattern, you’ll need to get extremely lucky as there are 1000 different patterns for the Case Hardened. Then, you’ll need to find the right skins for a trade-up to make the skin a Factory New StatTrak, which is also becoming increasingly rare and expensive.
Now almost half a year since the skin was revealed to the world, it has sold for an enormous sum.

A sale was brokered by two of CS2’s biggest skin collectors,Sam “roflm0nster” AlexanderandOliver “zipel” Behrensdorff, with both announcing online that the skin had been sold.
However, who exactly the buyer is and just how much they paid for the skin was not disclosed by either of them, roflm0nster admitting that “$1 million offers were rejected multiple times”.
Therefore, it’s safe to say the skin must have at least cost the buyer $1 million, which makes it the most expensive gun skin to ever be sold.
Not at liberty to disclose buyer or exact amount. What I can say is that $1m offers were rejected multiple times. Make your own conclusions
If the price is ever to be revealed to be above $1.5 million, it will make it the most expensive item in all of Counter-Strike.
