Default Is Fish Pink a Sought After Glass?

I have some Fish Pink and wonder if it's one of those no longer made glasses that people love? And, if so, what would it go for?

I think it's fair to say that the great majority of people were not fans of fish pink. No idea on pricing.

Fish pink/tongue pink I find its a great base for some silver glass colors. I always liked it with terra frit. It's a little secret. Neat color pops

I like it too. I don't think it is particularly attractive just by itself, but it is great in some combos.

I sold mine off at a loss. Heck I think I even gave some away. Ugly color.

I think this was tongue pink and terra frit.
I didn't have to do basically anything to get that color either.
And that was on a hothead too...
