Did they change the font on their labels, or is this just a clever lookalike?

Font looks wrong for ICG.
Just pulled this off the web for comparison.

Does the coin look bad to you?
Like many of the PCGS certs there is no image...

ICG changed the font recently
Here is a post ICG had on Instagram

Looks nice.
If I see a coin that's authentic and properly graded such as this coin, I assume the slab is authentic. The slabbing factories are always changing their labels including the font and format so that isn't always a red flag.
