You have to be careful at auctions. Preview the coins, and determine the absolute most that you will bid on each, and DON'T exceed it. I have seen far too many auction coins get bid to far above their value, because uninformed bidders get caught up in the excitement of the moment, or think the coin is "rare".
IMHO, garage sales, estate sales, pawn shops, and flea markets are good places to hunt. Just check the coins carefully, and don't be afraid to walk away if you don't like the price, or the coin doesn't look quite right.
