There is a known issue on MetaMask where after the restoration of a wallet, MetaMask shows a different account with missing funds. Please make sure you use the same RPC network details as the one used in the original wallet. 
Manually add custom RPC for Avalanche or Moonbeam
After installing MetaMask, users will find that the wallet app supports the Ethereum Network by default. But since Avalanche Network and Moonbeam Network are EVM compatible, they can be used the same way by setting up a custom RPC endpoint.
Log in to MetaMask -> Click the Network drop-down -> Add Network
​
Avalanche Settings:
Network Name: Avalanche Network
New RPC URL: https://api.avax.network/ext/bc/C/rpc​
Chain ID: 43114
Symbol: AVAX
Explorer: https://snowtrace.io/​
Moonbeam Settings:
Network Name: Moonbeam
New RPC URL: https://rpc.api.moonbeam.network/​
Chain ID: 1284
Symbol: GLMR
Explorer: https://moonscan.io/​
