Hi bluflamed67,
I can't answer your question but, I can tell you that my wife's 1959 Coupe is Pinehurst green.

Here is a picture of it at the 2018 Detroit Dream Cruise.

I am still looking for info on the production numbers for 1959 cadiallac in pinehurst green. Everything I have found shows 0 were made yet I have seen several. Anyone have a contact number of a 1959 cadillac expert?

   You are looking for information which you likely can't find.

Paint companies some years did disclose the industry wide colors of new cars. That would not help.

 Cadillac in some years did include a breakdown of color usage, normally in the following year Optional Specifications Manual. I checked 1960 ,no luck.

I did find the breakdown for 1961 in the 1962 book.

   The color closest in 1962, 1961 %

     Turquoise     4.4%
     Sage          4.6%
     Granada Green 0.9%

   Eldorado Colors

  Pinehurst Green 12.8%

Ward's Automotive Yearbook lists color breakdown for year but not by model. Would need the 1960 edition for 1959 stats. Otherwise there are no known sources for the specific question this side of going through the "Cars Built" sheets- all 4,000 of them.
