This letter reports the discovery of excess emission at the position of the H I n=22-21 Rydberg transition in submillimetre solar spectra taken at the extreme solar limb. This emission feature at 22.096+/-0.003 cm-1 shows significant limb brightening, reaching intensities of 11% above the adjacent spectral continuum with line shapes fitted best by Gaussian functions with widths of 0.018+/-0.004 cm-1. This measurement represents the highest-n Rydberg line of H I detected to date in the solar spectrum.
