The "Sheldon" Rarity Scale is the most commonly used scale and it is a 1 to 8 scale. There are other scales and one commonly used for tokens is a 1 to 10 scale (This scale is commonly used for CWT's and Coal Scrip. It may be used for HTT as well.) I believe the original Judd boo used a different rarity scale which may have been a nine point scale but I think it is just the "Sheldon" scale with the R-8 changed from 1-3 known to 1-2 known and R-9 added as Unique.
