There's no simple answer. US has struck coins since 1793 in about 2 dozen denominations so there are many rare ones to choose from.
The following are among the rarest. All of them are in collections so there's no chance any will turn up in change!
1854-O $20 gold piece (double eagle)
1933 $20 gold piece
1793 Liberty head cent with a chain reverse
1913 Liberty head nickel
1794 silver dollar
1804 silver dollar
1822 $5 gold (half eagle)
1796 and 1797 half dollars
All of those (and more) are worth well into 6 or even 7 figures. If you consider coins worth less than a quarter of a million dollars there are many dozens.
