Default 12 or 14?

I have an old Parker hammer gun that I had a gunsmith look at for me. According to his caliper measurements, the breech of both barrels equates to 14 gauge, but the barrels are 12 gauge (.730). Just wondering if this would be classified a 12 gauge, 14 gauge, or something entirely different. Thanks!!

P,S. Many, many thanks to Mr. Romig who sent me an article regarding this situation, but which I didn't entirely understand! Guess I'm just not too gun savvy!
