Archinal & Hynes (2003, "Star Clusters", 2003stcl.book.....A) lists the position of Col 469 at (J2000) 18:16:33.7 -18:18:42, and lists a diameter of 2.6'. They note "Archinal: Small group on the SW side of Barnard 93 (on the north side of M 24). Confirmed against Collinder photograph. Alias: Lund 818, OCl 35, C1813-182." There is a stellar group visible at these coordinates on Digitized Sky Survey. It appears that the Dias+2001 V3.0 open cluster catalog position for Col 469 is a rounded version of the Archinal & Hynes (2003) position, and the AH2003 position is probably the best published position available for Collinder 469.
