i also check Craigslist...when i first moved to Florida and decided to get into collecting a little more seriously i found an ad for 5 silver dollars pre 1900 for $40. one of them has a nice deep rainbow color to it.
Papa--good idea...at one time i had a teller that would call me and let me know when they had eisenhower dollars and half dollars. i was keeping my coins separated by denomination in cardboard cigar boxes,but i recently found wooden ones for a buck a piece so im about to switch to those.
just some advice i found very useful was to keep ur coins in plastic coin rolls--made for all denominations..it keeps them from rubbing against each other and scratching themselves up.
