Trinkets are little objects to collect and display, and are displayed in the "Trinkets" section of the booty panel. They do not decay, and skull and Brigand King rewards can be held in portraits. Trinkets may be displayed in scenes using the display case furniture item, and they may be equipped one-at-a-time in the booty panel to be seen by other pirates. Most trinkets are occasionally given out as prizes in tournaments or as rewards for other contests, but are not given out upon request. There are also the occasional ocean-wide competitions such as the 2006 Holiday Event 'Santa Rampage' that anyone may take part in, and if they do so, are awarded a trinket based on their team's overall Ocean Ranking at the close of the contest. Ocean Masters and Ringers can write a line of text on some trinkets, which can be seen when the object is rolled over in the booty panel. They can also configure automatic tournaments to auto-inscribe a trinket prize with the details of the winner and circumstances under which it was won.

Trinkets are also obtainable from the Palace Shoppe. During special occasions, such as Valentine's Day, there are limited edition trinkets that may be purchased from the Palace Shoppe, such as the Teddy Bear of Valentine 2006. Trinkets normally sold in the Palace include the Awards and Greeting Cards. Certain trinkets may also be inscribed, such as the Awards. Trinkets may also be traded from player to player, and their price is usually determined by their rarity.
