You can find them on alpha.gnu.org.

  ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/

Alternatively you can build from version control.  This requires all
of the development tools to be installed.

  git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/coreutils

The git version history can be browsed by the web interface.

  http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git
