Tokens are probably the rarest of all because they are very regional. If I live in Siberia and have a bunch of Siberian tokens, there probably are not going to be a lot of other collectors who have them.
The rarest coin I have is 79 on the rarity index, and it is a 10 Pfennig zinc coin from Rheinprovinz.
It has a slight case of verdigris - so if anyone knows how to treat that let me know. I mainly got the coin because I wanted an Isle of Man coin with the three-legged symbol on it, triskelion.
My lowest on the index is 3, and is a 1964 French Franc.
But the lowest ones... So much different countries like US, France or Germany...

I am in a similar Situation... just bought Syrian KM 84, working at the moment to input all the info to update the catalog. I guess at the moment will be 100 Rarity Index.
Yes. Today I added a coin too to the catalog and at that moment the rate is 100. But I'm curious how high the rate will be at the moment of acceptance of the new coin.
i have a doubt

100- no numista member have that coin.
97- 1 numista member has that coin.
95 - 2 members
??- 3 members
?? - 5 members.
?? - 10 members
?? - 100 members
I have one coin that I had to add to Numista myself, so it has an index of 97 (I also have many, many tokens with an index of 97, as Edmonton was a center of token production for many years).
Remember that Numista started in France, so French coins have very low rarity indexes (even amazing centuries-old French coins that can't really be easily found outside France will have indexes below 50).
You're right, and I made my contribution of such low rates. But I'm surprised to see the 1 franc 1960-2001 as the only coin rated at 3.

The rarest listed coin is a 1698 escalin from the Spanish Netherlands. I needed make the new entry in the Numista catalogue for that one, so it has the NR 97.
Another presumably fairly rare coin is the 'gigot à six mites' also from the Spanish Netherlands. It's a small copper dated 1700. It must have been common a few centuries ago, but hardly any survived. The entry I made is still pending.
The most common demonetized coins? Belgian or French Francs, 10ct and 25ct fractionals of Dutch guilders, chunky stainless steel L50 and L100 from Italy.
To me the highest rarity index coins are those I dig myself and still unknown in the Numista catalogus.
This one is the most "common uncommon" coin in my collection https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces40076.html
The lowest are definately all those post 1970 coins from France, Belgium and Germany.

May you have the 10cts en the 25 cts 2001 I would be interested. They're hard to find.
Probably my Elizabeth I sixpence; it's somewhere in the 80s or 90s, but I haven't nailed down exactly which one it is yet -- it's pretty beat up, so identification has been a little problematic. My highest solidly identified is a 1622 3 Polker of Zygmunt III which comes in at 76.
I have a Euro cent that's a 5, haven't spotted anything lower yet, but I'll give 'em all a good going over and see if I can't come up with a 1 or 2. I've put some supremely common stuff on my list. :)

I have several pieces that a 97. They are all pieces that I have added. None of them are modern really. I have probably a dozen medieval coins I that are not in the catalog that I haven't added yet, Armenia, German States and the like. A quick glance though the catalog gets me these:
Several of my German and French notgeld are ones I added. There are also some Canadian and American tokens that I have added, but with those types of items it is harder to say because not as many people collect them.
