Glock-18 | Franklin

Glock-18 | Franklin is a CS2 pistol skin covered in American banknote imagery. Repeated Benjamin Franklin portraits, pale paper tones and muted green details create a dense, money-themed finish. The look suits players who prefer detailed graphics over plain colors. It comes in Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn, with standard and Souvenir versions but no StatTrak™ edition.

Description

Glock-18 | Franklin gives the Terrorist-side CS2 pistol a banknote design that extends across most of its visible surfaces. The weapon is suited to first-round encounters with unarmored opponents and can also fire bursts. Benjamin Franklin portraits provide recognizable focal points within the overlapping currency fragments. The artwork continues across the slide, frame, grip and trigger guard, rather than remaining confined to a single panel. Its cream, gray-black and muted green palette suits loadouts built around pale colors or currency imagery. Professional players NAF, AmaNEk and reck own the skin, providing concrete examples of ownership beyond its visual appeal. Buyers can compare exterior, exact float value and version when selecting a copy for their inventory. Choosing a listed copy allows those details to be checked before purchase instead of relying on a random acquisition result.

History and Origin

Glock-18 | Franklin was released on December 3, 2020. It arrived with the Operation Broken Fang update as part of The Havoc Collection. Valve created the finish rather than a community designer. The Franklin name connects directly to the repeated Benjamin Franklin portraits within its American currency artwork. Its collection affiliation remains relevant because The Havoc Collection provides the eligible inputs for its Trade Up Contract route. Today, existing copies can be bought on the Steam Community Market or acquired through player-to-player trades. Trade Up Contracts provide another route, with Franklin among the possible Restricted results rather than a guaranteed outcome.

Finish Style

The Franklin finish is a Custom Paint Job built around American hundred-dollar bill imagery. Cream-colored paper tones form the pale background, while gray-black printing and muted green details supply contrast. The printed treatment covers the slide, frame, trigger guard and grip, giving the pistol a closely connected visual theme. Benjamin Franklin portraits repeat across the slide and grip, appearing among the overlapping currency fragments. Bill borders, numerals, seals and small printed text add detail between those larger portraits. The fragments sit at different angles and wrap around the pistol's contours instead of forming a single flat illustration. The dark muzzle opening and space inside the trigger guard contrast with the surrounding pale artwork. Almost no large plain-color areas remain, making the finish busy and densely patterned throughout.

Float Value

Glock-18 | Franklin has a float value range of 0.00 to 0.40. Its available exteriors are Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn. Souvenir versions are available; version availability is separate from the cosmetic condition described by exterior and float.

Rarity and Popularity

Glock-18 | Franklin belongs to the Restricted rarity grade within The Havoc Collection. Its collection acquisition chance is 0.21%, approximately 1 in 469 outcomes, rather than a guaranteed result. Ownership by NAF, AmaNEk and reck adds professional collector context, but rarity and ownership alone do not establish current trading demand.

Why it’s Popular:

• Benjamin Franklin portraits give the artwork a clear theme

• Dense banknote details cover the slide, frame and grip

• Cream and muted green suit currency-themed loadouts

• Souvenir versions provide another collecting option

Price Range

The live CS2 skin price range for Glock-18 | Franklin is $73.42 to $124.81. These bounds cover the whole item, not a fixed exterior or version. Compare Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn listings by exact float value rather than exterior name alone. Standard and Souvenir copies should also be checked separately because version is another distinction between listings. For a buy, sell or trade decision, compare copies matching the intended version and condition instead of relying only on the overall range.

How to Obtain

1. Buy Directly through Eneba Skins

One of the fastest and most straightforward options is to purchase skins directly through Eneba Skins. You can browse available CS2 skins, compare prices, and choose the items that best fit your budget.

2. Trade Up Contracts

A Trade Up Contract can use 10 Mil-Spec Grade skins from The Havoc Collection to produce 1 Restricted skin from that collection. Glock-18 | Franklin is a possible result, but the outcome is random among the collection's Restricted skins. This route offers a chance at the finish, not a way to select it directly.

3. Buy on the Steam Community Market

Glock-18 | Franklin can be purchased directly on the Steam Community Market, avoiding the random outcome of a Trade Up Contract. Check the offered exterior, exact float and whether the listing is a standard or Souvenir copy before comparing its price.

4. Trade with Other Players

Player-to-player trades allow an owner to exchange a specific Glock-18 | Franklin for an agreed offer. Confirm the copy's exterior, float and version before accepting, especially when the exchange includes other skins.

Trading and Investment Considerations

Market availability includes standard and Souvenir copies, so comparisons should focus on the specific version and exterior being bought or sold. Professional ownership provides context for interest, but it does not establish sustained demand or predictable resale speed. Without a confirmed supply trend or price history, the case for short-term trading gains remains uncertain.

Reasons it Holds Value

• Restricted rarity within The Havoc Collection

• Ownership by NAF, AmaNEk and reck

• Souvenir versions broaden collecting options

• Distinctive American banknote artwork

The investment rating is medium, balancing Restricted rarity, professional ownership and Souvenir availability against uncertain supply and demand. Those features provide collecting appeal, but they do not demonstrate future price growth. The main risk is overpaying for an individual listing when future demand and resale prices remain uncertain.
