How about a vintage pocket watch or a unique antique chess set? Another idea could be antique books or an antique map of a place he enjoys visiting. You could also consider giving him a vintage record player and some classic vinyl records for him to start collecting. If he has a specific interest in a certain era or style of antique, you could focus on finding something within that category such as a decorative Art Deco piece or an antique tool for his collection. Whatever you choose, make sure to do your research and find something that aligns with his specific interests within antique collecting.
Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.
