To be frank about it, when I first viewed the PCGS coin I thought it had been quietly net graded 3 or 5 points for a light, market-acceptable cleaning.

It looks far better than the ICG coin from what can be seen in the images and likely was a better value based on dollars spent.

Please remember you bought the ICG coin for half of what an attractive, original AU58 might have cost. There's a reason for that. The PCGS coin better reflects $900 in value for this date. Whether or not it's entirely original or not? Who knows. You're spending a lot of money here, spend some time learning before dropping a grand on a coin again.

actually, the "hairlines" look more like the random, minute little marks a coin could get from circulation
