Before you said it was a "footprint" I thought it was a big piece of poop. |

Was that not serious?
I think a person's self is the most valuable and rarest thing...even if people start cloning humans (which is a totally different topic). I don't know how everyone feels about themselves...so maybe some wouldn't consider their self to be the rarest thing they own, but for me myself is.  |

Hey, that's cool. I have a Hamilton from the same year that my dad gave me for my birthday. It's an amazing little machine.

I specialize in the strange and unusual in a small antique business I have and have lots of uncommon/rare things they come and go though as I buy and sell them

Uhh... 
I'll take a guess and say my Pioneer SX-990 Hi-Fi solid state receiver from 1969-70. Still sounds incredibly good, nearly forty years later. Just don't make 'em like they used to.
The best part is I got it for $5 at a yard sale. It's easily worth 15 times as much, if not more.
I've also got my (month-old) Lamy fountain pen, the single smoothest writing instrument I've ever used.
Also a fairly sizeable collection of LP records, many of which are Reader's Digest compilations from the 1960s and '70s. They came from an older relative.

Probably a silver dollar from 1900.
