Nope.

 

thanks for reply, it looks to me like the a and m are not touching at all maybe these pics will help

 

thanks for reply, it is so close,

thanks, it is so close, here are two other pics

 

the initials FG are to far away for it to be a wide AM, they would have to be closer.

 

thanks for reply, the initials FG are to far, good call, I was so excited about the am not touching, the initials never crossed my mind, thanks again

 

Even without looking at the initials you can see that there is almost no gap between the A and M and there is a wider gap between the M and E. If it were a wide AM, the gap would be almost the same between AM and ME.

 

It's not a question of whether or not they touch since that can be the result of a strong strike vs a weak strike.

It's a question of whether or not its a Wide AM or Close AM and it is in fact a Close AM.

The position of the initials gives it away.
