Actually the one OpenPGP smartcard I know of is sold by FLOSS-Shop
(ex-kernel-concepts):
https://www.floss-shop.de/de/security-privacy/smartcards/4/openpgp-smart-card-v2.1-mifare-desfire?c=41
This one has an NFC chip but which is not for use with OpenPGP.
There may be other smartcards out there which can also be used with
GnuPG but they're usually not called "OpenPGP card".
