Are these Aramith Pros?

Can't tell, they look the same to me, but price is way low and the box is that same green one with circles that the fake ones come in. I can't tell any difference in the fonts.

They look like the imitations found on eBay.

I took a look again, the 2 ball in the copies is a lot more scripted in the bottom, this 2 ball is straighter.

Fake ones, note how scripted the 2s are and also the numbers in the first picture in my post seem to fill the center more :

This is a set of Aramith Super Pro balls and they are in the original box. Yes they are dirty.

Notice the slight gray haze around the numbers. I've always understood that is a sign they are real. The fake ones are very crisp at the number edges.

Honestly the ball look too white to be the real deal, green box could be the tell. Inexpensive made in Asia balls, list in many places 20-30 bucks.
 
I noticed that haze around the numbers also, and after comparing the pictures, the white is also not ivory enough to match the real aged sets.

Thanks for the help!
 
This is the cue ball that came with my super aramith Pro set. The box top is shown also.
