"Have you seen any numismatic masks? Artistic, wacky, cornball, whatever – there must be some worth reporting on?"
Actually, I haven't seen any. Of course, like most people these days, I don't get out much. But this pandemic has been going on plenty long enough for enterprising marketers to manufacture masks with a numismatic theme. Are coin clubs making any?
I found some online (just in time to Christmas shop for our numismatic friends)! One shows a fantasy coin picturing George Floyd. Most of these manufacturers offer a wide selection of numismatic-themed designs. There's even a "Hugh McCullock Face Mask" with a Bureau of Engraving and Printing image. I suspect these are all made to order using stock photos. I doubt there are warehouse shelves stocked with dozens of different versions awaiting buyers. Each could be a unique or near-unique collectible someday.
