Not sure using Rankx or Row Number but below DAX works well if there is
unique field/id:

 

dup =
Var pid = Products[UNID]
return CALCULATE (
COUNTROWS ( Products ),
ALLEXCEPT ( Products, Products[EFFECTIVEDATE] ),
pid >= Products[UNID]
)

ALLEXCEPT ( Products, Products[EFFECTIVEDATE] ) is the field you want to find the duplicate by and
you can include multiple fileds here and Products[UNID] is unique filed/row identifier of the products table.

 

Thanks
