    Is that a 'shell elliptical'? A Hoag object?

    and AGZ0004gxm ?

    AGZ00040br : I'd go for a two armed spiral where the arms fold back to make a ring. #ringed galaxy.

    And I'd classify AGZ0004gxm also as a ringed galaxy, ie a two-armed spiral

    Both galaxies are definitely spirals not ellipticals.
