    The wide AM is the spacing between the letters in America. RMP? Do you mean RPM? RPM would stand for re-punched mint mark.

    Howdy edfau1993 - Welcome to the Forum !!

    First of all you may find it helpful to browse through this area of the forum - Numismatic Resources - you will find links to many articles on just about any numismatic subject that will help provide answers and valuable information.

    As to your question about rolls from the '40s & '50s - they look like coin rolls. They will be in simple paper wrappers and can have a variety of wording on them. Most often it wil be something simple like 50 CENTS or $2 DOLLARS. Usually the denomination is also listed such as DIMES or QUARTERS. And depending on the source of the rolls there may or may not be the name of a bank on the wrapper as well.
