Default Opinions on this Francotte

I'm looking for opinions on this Francotte double as to whether it is a more recently produced gun or if it looks like a restoration/refinish? The reason I ask is because around the time this came on the market, I saw a similar Francotte 16 gauge double for sale at Quality Arms in Texas that was listed as being new and has since been sold. This gun and the one that was on the Quality Arms website both are marked with the same "Made in Belgium" mark on the left barrel near the breech. In looking at older guns online and those I've handled, I've not seen the barrels marked like that. The last photo is the 16 gauge that was sold by Quality Arms. I did question the seller about this gun a few months ago when I looked at it and all they would tell me was that it was a Francotte. Any information is appreciated.
Thanks
Tim
