AK-47 Aphrodite Patterns: Pink Gems, Purple Gems and Prices
Which AK-47 Aphrodite seeds are Pink, Purple, Gold and Bronze Gems, what each group has sold for on CSFloat, and why only a few of them are worth paying extra for.
The AK-47 Aphrodite trades more than any other skin tracked on this site: 12,399 recorded CSFloat sales between 1 May and 19 September 2026. Most of those sold for around twenty dollars, whatever the pattern. A few seeds sell for much more, and one, seed 904, has cleared $3,600.
This guide goes through every tracked Aphrodite group, which seeds are in it, and whether buyers actually pay extra. The groups all live on the AK-47 Aphrodite skin page.
How the Aphrodite pattern works
The Aphrodite finish shifts color across the gun depending on the paint seed, from bronze and gold through to purple and pink. Collectors call a seed with one color dominating the visible side a "gem," after the Case Hardened Blue Gems. This site sorts Aphrodite seeds into four gem colors:
- Pink Gems: 12 seeds, one tier.
- Purple Gems: 34 seeds.
- Gold Gems: four tiers, 405 seeds in total.
- Bronze Gems: four tiers, 412 seeds in total.
That's most of the 1,001 possible seeds, which tells you something already. When nearly every seed has a "gem" label, the label alone can't be worth much. The tiers are this site's own groupings, not Valve's, and other trackers split them differently. What a CS2 pattern index is covers the seed mechanic if you're new to it.
Check which group your seed is in:
Aphrodite prices by group
| Group | Seeds tracked | Sales | Median sale | Highest sale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pink Gems | 12 | 541 | $49.90 | $3,676.08 |
| Purple Gems | 34 | 1,165 | $37.15 | $1,475.51 |
| Gold Gems Tier 1 | 64 | 1,674 | $31.00 | $2,113.59 |
| Gold Gems Tier 2 | 92 | 1,148 | $19.00 | $1,191.90 |
| Gold Gems Tier 3 | 146 | 1,745 | $18.72 | $750 |
| Gold Gems Tier 4 | 103 | 1,264 | $18.31 | $700 |
| Bronze Gems Tier 1 | 72 | 867 | $18.40 | $700 |
| Bronze Gems Tier 2 | 75 | 864 | $18.51 | $960 |
| Bronze Gems Tier 3 | 103 | 1,221 | $18.57 | $715.06 |
| Bronze Gems Tier 4 | 162 | 1,910 | $18.29 | $650 |
Seven of those ten groups have a median between $18.29 and $19. That's the price of an Aphrodite, full stop. Bronze Gem Tier 1 sells for the same as Bronze Gem Tier 4, and Gold Gem Tier 2 for the same as Tier 4. The "highest sale" in every one of those groups is a Factory New copy, which cost more on any seed (more on that below).
Three groups break away from the pack: Pink Gems, Purple Gems and Gold Gems Tier 1.
Pink Gems
Seeds 117, 354, 356, 370, 426, 542, 567, 587, 764, 880, 904 and 948.
Seed 904 is in a class of its own. Its two Factory New sales went for $3,676.08 and $3,259.85, both without stickers. Across all 40 of its sales the median was $330.51, and its 17 Minimal Wear sales had a median of $441.55. No other Aphrodite seed comes close to that.
The rest of the group is far cheaper, and it varies a lot by seed. Seed 948 had a $120.98 median across 47 sales, 567 had $84.90. Seed 370 is the trap. It sold once in Factory New for $2,085, but its median over 37 sales is $27.40, barely above an ordinary Aphrodite. That single sale says more about Factory New rarity than about seed 370.
Purple Gems
Thirty-four seeds, and the one with the broadest premium. Field-Tested Purple Gems had a median of $37.50, about double a normal Aphrodite in the same wear. Seed 885 leads the group with a $116.50 median across 46 sales and a $1,475.51 Factory New top. Seed 297 ($45 median) and 69 ($58.40) trade often, too.
Gold Gems Tier 1
The only gold tier with a premium, and a handful of seeds carry most of it. Seed 119 had a median of $85 across 77 sales, the most traded premium Aphrodite seed tracked here. Seed 512 holds the group's $2,113.59 top, but that Factory New copy had a FURIA Gold sticker from Paris 2023 on it, and 512's median is $40.97. Seed 271 ($44.33) sits in between.
Stickers turn up often on Aphrodites. About 16% of the tracked sales had at least one. How stickers affect skin prices shows how to check whether a high sale was the seed or the craft.
Factory New changes everything
Non-StatTrak medians by wear, for three groups:
| Wear | Bronze Gems Tier 4 | Purple Gems | Pink Gems |
|---|---|---|---|
| Factory New | $512.16 | $766.13 | $799.90 |
| Minimal Wear | $40.00 | $88.50 | $141.23 |
| Field-Tested | $19.74 | $37.50 | $55.00 |
| Well-Worn | $13.20 | $20.30 | $24.57 |
| Battle-Scarred | $12.98 | $16.45 | $14.38 |
A Factory New Aphrodite on a plain Bronze Gem seed sells for about 25 times a Field-Tested one. Factory New copies are scarce (only about 2.6% of the tracked sales), and that scarcity drives the price more than any gem color does. It's also why every group's "highest sale" looks impressive: every one of them is Factory New. Float values explained covers how the wear brackets work.
Is a gem Aphrodite worth paying for?
Pink 904, Purple 885 and Gold 119 have premiums you can see in dozens of sales. Most other Pink and Purple seeds carry a smaller but real one, roughly double a normal copy. For Bronze Gems and Gold Gems Tiers 2 to 4, I wouldn't pay a cent over the going rate for the label, because the sales say nobody else will either.
And don't price one off the Steam Market graph. Steam averages every Aphrodite seed into one line per wear, so a Pink Gem's premium disappears into 12,000 ordinary sales (why).
Frequently Asked Questions
How much is an AK-47 Aphrodite worth?
A Field-Tested Aphrodite on an ordinary tracked seed sells for about $20. Between May and mid September 2026, Bronze Gems and Gold Gems Tiers 2 to 4 all had CSFloat medians between $18 and $19. Pink Gems ($49.90), Purple Gems ($37.15) and Gold Gems Tier 1 ($31) are the only groups with a clear premium.
What is the best AK-47 Aphrodite pattern?
Seed 904, a Pink Gem. It holds the two highest Aphrodite sales tracked here, $3,676.08 and $3,259.85, both Factory New with no stickers. Its median across 40 sales was $330.51, far above any other seed.
What is a Pink Gem AK-47 Aphrodite?
One of 12 tracked seeds where pink dominates the visible side of the rifle: 117, 354, 356, 370, 426, 542, 567, 587, 764, 880, 904 and 948. It's the most expensive Aphrodite group, with a median sale of $49.90.
Why is Factory New AK-47 Aphrodite so expensive?
Factory New copies are rare. Only about 2.6% of the tracked Aphrodite sales were Factory New, and even ordinary Bronze Gem seeds had a Factory New median around $500, against about $20 for Field-Tested.
Are Bronze Gem AK-47 Aphrodites worth more?
Not in the sales data. All four Bronze Gem tiers had medians between $18.29 and $18.51, the same as Gold Gems Tiers 2 to 4. Buyers don't pay extra for them.
