How about:

\version "2.19.81"

circledFingerStil =
  #(lambda (grob)
     (circle-stencil (ly:text-interface::print grob) 0.1 0.1))

\fixed c' {
  \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)

  <g-\tweak stencil \circledFingerStil -2
   b-\tweak stencil \circledFingerStil-3
   d'-4>1

  \override Fingering.stencil = \circledFingerStil
  <g-2 b-3 d'-4>1
}

There _is_ some buit-in code which avoids collisions of Fingering, but
 it does not work for StringNumbers or a mix of Fingerings and
StringNumbers, afaik.
