Would the 11 maravedis from the Dominican Republic work for an 11? As the description says, its denomination is written on the right side of the reverse.

Yes, that would count, I think - though this is really scraping the bottom in terms of sheer rarity.

EDIT: and this is Santo Domingo, of course. "Dominican Republic" is anachronistic.

EDIT 2: and with the addition of 11, the only integers between 1 and 50 we're still missing are 19, 23, 26, 27, 29, 34, 38, 41, 43, 47 and 49 - and one more (37) is only known from NCLT.
(Good luck on all of those except maybe 27.)

Finn235, I'll omit this item, just like I did with its Canadian counterpart. We already have examples for that denomination and our objective is not to make a complete list, but one that might be useful for a regular collector who may research the area further. Hence, we don't list all German states that issued a 1/24 thaler and we don't list the products that weigh more than a kilo unless the denomination is completely new. And yes, one may argue what use this list is for the average collector if it includes, for example, 10-ounce gold coins with low mintages, which would also be expensive and difficult to obtain. I have to admit this is a grey area but one has to draw a line somewhere.

Joseph7420, that's a wonderful find, thanks a lot for that! And while 6 known examples doesn't make it particularly available, it's the only 11 found so far.

Other existing examples:
Dominican Republic 30 pesos gold; Hannover 1/12 thaler; Regensburg 1/9 thaler.

Ironically enough, the first one of those missing numbers I find is the one that was alreadly known - just only from NCLT.
Bohemia 37 krejcar (or "kreuzer", I suppose) - last photo on this page. It's in Czech, sorry, but you should probably be able to get enough of the description to check that it would count for the list.

They apparently had a 67 krejcar too (most likely in 1619, perhaps in 1620), but I couldn't find any pictures of that one, sadly (only mentions in a list of denominations).

Wasn't even looking for it - just happened to stumble on a mention during yet another (and finally successful) bout of searching for other examples of my Bohemian 1/4 kreuzer. (Turned out I didn't think of searching for "1/4 krejcar".)

EDIT: fixed typo

Turned out that I wasn't able to find any references to the 67 krejcar, anywhere outside that one page - not even on different pages of the same site.
This means it's likely to be a typo, either on that one page, or wherever they got the info from. Sorry.

In other news, the Swiss canton of Fribourg/Freiburg apparently issued coins of 14, 28, and 56 kreuzer, and as Sarine et Broye, also 42 kreuzer (note: on most examples of the 42, the area with the denomination is very badly struck and hardly readable).
None of those are new denominations, however.

The numbers 54, 64 and 84 (and 144, for that matter) remain elusive, despite a complete lack of any reason why they wouldn't exist; seriously, don't ask me why, I have no idea either.

Another sample of a $1.000.000 coin would be the 100kg Canadian Gold Maple Leaf. Not exactly a circulation coin, though.

Also, the Republic of the Congo issued a 1kg silver coin in 2016 with a face value of 150.000 francs. That's a new denomination for the list.

An example of an already unusual denomination from the 20th century: Schiltigheim 14 pfennig notgeld (Numista entry).

Not sure such an obvious token counts as a "coin", however. (And it's not a new denomination, anyway.)

EDIT: And just as I posted that, I have found evidence of a denomination listed in the missing numbers set six posts above - Byzantium 23 siliquae (VCoins description - I interpret it to mean that the denomination is, in fact, on the coin, which qualifies it for this thread).

I think the siliqua in this usage was a measure of weight; just like any bullion coin is "$1, 1 oz .999 silver".

Beautiful coin though!

I think the siliqua in this usage was a measure of weight; just like any bullion coin is "$1, 1 oz .999 silver".

Beautiful coin though!
I'm not disputing that, but it does appear that the coin shows the 23 explicitly, and it's not very likely that we'd find any other 23, anyway (except perhaps some obscure token).

I think it can be both. At least the Siliqua was used as denomination, and it's derived from the word silique, which was indeed an indication of weight (the average weight of the seed of a carob tree). As such, it's perfectly good to keep this one on the list, as it was indeed used as denomination.

What I don't understand is why a coin of 23 Siliqua has been made as 24 Siliqua made for one Solidus.

I thought there were no new small numbers to discover.
I was wrong, apparently.

First, there's the Pfalz gulden of 26 albus (NGC entry) and its fractions 13 albus (NGC entry, couldn't find an image, sorry), 6-1/2 albus (eBay auction - the NGC/Krause pictures are too inconclusive on it not just being 6), and 3-1/4 albus (NGC entry with explanation - it's 3 albus 2 pfennig - and Worthopedia entry with image).

And also, finally, after searching for an example of this number on-and-off since early September... Hanau-Munzenberg 27 albus (Numisbid link).
Estimate 500 euros, sold for 8000 euros... ouch. (And with a barely readable denomination at that.) Even considering the apparent three-digit mintage, it's hard to explain the disparity between the estimate and final price. Most likely, either there's a typo and it's really 800, or there's been a bidding war between a bunch of denomination collectors who really wanted that 27.

Remaining integers in range 1-50 are 19, 29, 34, 38, 41, 43, 47 and 49 - and maybe 23 (because it's not clear whether the 23 siliquae coin counts; it's a lightweight solidus, incidentally).
Can't see how we could find any of those - but then I didn't expect 23 either. (Or 37 for that matter.)
Still looking for 54, 64 and 84 (and many other numbers); no luck so far.
