Is my paint code correct? Code: 200 / 194

My 1963 Volvo 544 was repainted in the 80s with the Code 200 Blue Metallic paint. Code 194 is listed as being the same paint. After ordering a touch up kit, it appears the paint is much darker and more grey than the otherwise warm blue that is on the car right now that apparently is Volvo 200 Blue Metallic paint. The car has seen little sun in 30 years so I don't suspect much fading.

Is it possible the shade is off? Is 194 and 200 the exact same paint? Here is what I found in terms of model availability:

194 Blue metallic 240
200 Blue metallic 240/260/760

Thanks!
