RX is the code for CCH35. One of the codes for EL84 is rX, so whoever applied the code was careless about details. It looks handwritten, which would be most unusual.
Do they look like a Telefunken EL84 inside?

Yes, they are definitely Telefunken structure with the characteristic indented halo getter and diamond imprint on the base. They also have the inverted capital "T" which points to Telefunken.
Actually, the poor inaccurate factory code could even be a sign of genuineness. Only a very incompetent faker would get it that wrong - or a very clever faker working a double-bluff.
