I would be suspicious of the overprints on the stamps in your image. The printing doesn't seem sharp and clear, and seems to be a bit larger than the genuine overprint. Also, on one of your stamps, the "7" is mangled. This wouldn't happen with the genuine overprint. I don't have the high valued stamps, but below is an image of a lower valued one from the set with a genuine overprint. Also, check the cancels on the stamps where the cancel overlaps the overprint. If the overprint is printed on top of the cancel, there would be no doubt the overprint is fake.
