It is either "1" or "0".

There is a philosophical dispute among mathematicians as to whether the number zero counts as a natural number. I think the Phoenicians introduced the concept of zero in written numbers, but even before them, there was always a natural concept of "one apple" and "no apple."

Therefore, I'd argue that the smallest one digit natural number is zero.
