Classification?

I think this may be a lenticular (S0) galaxy: I cannot tell if it is an E7 elliptical or spiral. There may be a bulge in the center, which led to my classification of "spiral", but I am unsure.

Hi ksrivatsan and welcome to the Zoo,
If you look at a lenticular (disk) or a spiral galaxy edge on there is no way to tell the difference between them.
So, here we have an edge on, with maybe a little bulge, but that is entirely up to you !
Happy hunting! 😄
