   Earlier I have mentioned many places that you can buy bank notes or coins.

   However, it would be best that you learned more about what you want by first buying books to have a more indepth knowledge.

   Next, it is strongly suggest that you joined a local numismatic clubs so that you can learn and buy or exchange with your seniors or peers or from occasional auctions held by your numismatic club. This is to prevent any fraud re: people who wants to cheat you.

   After that you may try:
   - on-line auctions,
   - visit reputable coins shop to get what you want.
