Finest Known

Finest Known is a private firm founded on a simple premise: If you collect and invest in true rarity and superb quality, you'll make money. My name is James DiGeorgia. I've been a collector, investor and dealer for over 37 years and I'm the founder and Chief Numismatist of Finest Known.

I started buying and selling coins as a child and opened my first rare coin dealership, Gem Coins, in 1976 when I was just 16 years old. Over the years I've bought and sold well over $100 million in rare coins. Along the way I increased my experience and knowledge by working as a numismatist for Bowers & Ruddy, Inc., North American Coin and Currency, Heritage Rare Coin Galleries, Rarities Group, Inc. and Charter Oak Numismatics.

In 1991 I accepted the editorship of the world renowned and fiercely independent Silver & Gold Report. During those years editing Silver & Gold Report I earned a reputation as an unyielding consumer advocate and helped investors avoid the common traps when investing in rare coins and bullion. I authored The Insiders Guide to Buying Gold, Silver and Rare Coins and was frequently quoted as an expert in The New York Times, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, Money magazine, The Chicago Tribune, and Barron's to name just a few.

When dealing with me, you can expect I will always be truthful and fair. I will be focused on helping you build a portfolio or collection that will make you money. I will use my knowledge and experience to make sure you avoid traps and mistakes, and see to it that you make sound, informed decisions when buying and selling rare coins.

I specialize in the finest quality, classic, rare United States and Russian coinage. These are what I invest my money in; the area of numismatics that represents the best investment potential. I will only sell coins that are truly rare and among the finest known.

Bottom Line: I will NEVER sell a rare coin I wouldn't put into my own collection. In fact many of the coins I offer are from my own collection. I love rare coins! This may not seem important, but it is. I'm not a dealer just for the money -- I have a genuine love for numismatics. I've been collecting since I was 6 years old. This means I'll spend the time with each client teaching them the hobby and improving their odds of making money with rare coins.
