Default Forged pistons?

How can I tell if these LT1 pistons are forged or not? I was told they were stock size forged pistons (they came as extras w/ a long block I purchased). The numbers are not giving me any info. other than that they are Mahle pistons. The numbers on the underside of the piston are 101ST7....101V13....G8011.

Those are stock hyper pistons, even have the red coating on them.
