I’ll let some others give you specific sites to look at. A lot will depend on your budget and what you like.
PLEASE ALWAYS have your parents help you shop or bid online
ebay
I'd personally stay away from eBay until you are a more seasoned collector. There's a lot of potential for bad purchases there.
as stated depends on your budget and what you like
off the top of my head
E-bay, the BST forums here
some others may chime in with more sites

I haven't posted to any of your threads yet, but I will to this one.
Please, just read and learn. You are in way over your head. Sit back, read, learn, post occasionally and be patient. I realize this might be tough, but you're not doing anyone any favors with the track you are currently on and the person who would benefit the most by heeding my advice is you. The coins will always be there. There is no hurry.

Sorry
Start at the BST for some. Always neat coins there.
Agree with @TomB to slow down, read and learn on the boards. Great info here. I'm 16 and been on the boards for just over a year and probably learned more than my 8-9 years of collecting reading the red book till it fell apart before I joined.

Kudos to Kliao. He is a role model to our younger generation of collectors. And I bet some of you didn't even know he's a young man unless you're a regular on this forum.
Thanks I really apricate it @TurboSnail .

Ebay? You still might find a good deal once in a while, just be on your toes.
When you know how to identify something as to being authentic and what to look for in terms of post-mint damage, then eBay will be a good hunting ground.
Here's one example!
Early U.S. Medals of the 1790's are quite valuable. A particular one was posted on eBay a couple weeks ago, with a price beyond $100,000, as if it was genuine and unique. There were no bids on that piece, and the price came down. Now it's listed as being created in 1876, yet it's back was planed off, with some carvings in on the back, and the asking price is $400! Obviously, the seller had no idea whatsoever about the piece when it was first listed. My point is, just because an eBay seller says something about the item they're selling, doesn't mean it's true, and the buyer needs to be cautious to weed out the fakers.
Unless they read my signature line I think most don’t
