An old silver pendant that used to be my mother's. It has a simple yet iconic design, people often notice it and make comments on it.

Probably not super unique but a glass breaker/seatbelt cutter. If I'm in an accident or I come upon one, I want that ability with me.
An arch lighter version of a zippo. It fits in traditional zippo cases so I have a collection of shells that I change out to fit the mood. The current one is matte black with a cthulhu theme in brass but normally I use the mercury glass with bones and flowers. My wife calls it my zappo.
Also the severed finger of an elf.
Nail clippers. Got them originally to help with a bad habit of cuticle picking, but I've learned they're weirdly useful. They can cut things in a pinch and no security check gives a shit about them unlike a pocket knife.
Pesky zip ties in packaging are easy peazy, I carry em too.
My daily carry bag always includes my Kindle, my cribbage board, and dog treats.
I've started carrying a fountain pen rather than a typical ballpoint. I think the writing experience is a bit more pleasant.
Can you clarify what you mean by "unique"?
Anything from an AA coin to a Zebra statue. Something other than your phone, keys, wallet.

Nothing anymore. But from age 18 to mid 30s I kept my busted up old guitar pick in my wallet.
It had seen way too many shows, and it was brittle as hell. Itβs in a shoebox with since other memories now.
Less unique, I carried around phenergan pills in my pocket for about 10 years. Iβd had an episode of an unknown something setting off a reaction with my throat closing up. Urgent care gave me the pills when I left the hospital and I couldnβt not take them everywhere with me for a long time.
