Recently this 12 bore dbl bbl followed me home. The barrels are .742". The proof marks aren't the same as my Belgian William Moore. Can someone help me identify the proof marks?

According to VM Starr I think it's British Proofs. There's no ELG inside a circle to be seen, and the barrels are joined by a silver metal. On the top rib I can barely make out "Fine Twist" perhaps London is before it, but not really visible. Here's some lousy pics of the Proof marks.
