I think you have to differentiate between a condition rarity and a true rarity.
In regards to regular Topps issues, I'd have to go with '58 Herrer as the scarcest.
I can think of a dozen other cards that are tougher though- '60 Fleer #80 Collins, Grove or Tinker, '63 Pepsi Bateman with tab, any '58 Hires Test with tab, '51 Current All Stars Roberts, Stanky or Konstanty, any '61 Topps Dice game, '55 Topps stamp, '70 Topps cloth, '62 Salada Brandt just to name a few.
