I had a similar issue when adding a coin to my collection as well. I then found the button to click below the two that you noticed. Next to each mintage year I found a symbol with a downward facing arrow that you click to add a coin from that mintage year. It will open a dialogue box where you enter the information for the coin you are adding.
And "for those who prefer the previous interface, you may go to your account settings and choose the second option for "Display of my collection". The old version is available for the coin pages, display of your coins and fast input in search results."
