According to the serialization book it should be a 28 ga. hammerless grade 3 gun with ejectors (DHE) 24” Titanic steel barrels and a capped pistol grip stock. Sounds like it matches those specs. I would reach out to John Allen or Josh Loewensteiner on this forum for assistance with appraisal.

The option code 2, in the serialization book does not confirm the originality of the BTFE, should be 10, but, the book isn't always correct. A PGCA research letter will very possibly provide additional information, such as possible returns to the factory for changes, etc.
Regardless, it is a valuable gun, and I'd caution you to get as much information as possible.
Detailed photos of the barrel flats may show even more exciting details.
I've had several 24" guns, including a 28ga., and they are magical in the woods.
