I have a penny from 1849. I do believe it is the oldest thing I own with a date. I have some fossils that are obviously much older than that.
The oldest thing I own that I have personally owned the longest would have to be Blankie, my childhood blanket. I have a couple of other blankets, including a beautiful A-B-C quilt, that are the same age. I've had them all since I was born.
