He did indeed put it in the safe. That action *was* the first inception he
did, that caused Mal to believe she was dreaming even when she woke. It was
Mal's totem in Mal's safe.

Exactly. It was Mal's totem, not his.
My suspicion is that the top doesn't tell Cobb whether he's dreaming. It
tells him whether Mal's 'ghost' is nearby. Which of course can only happen
when he's dreaming.
If you watch it again and pay attention to the right places, you'd discover
that Cobb wears a wedding ring whenever he's sleeping and does not wear a
ring when he's awake, and there's always a shot of his hands close up near
the beginning of a new scene.
He also tells other people what the totem means, and lets people touch it,
so he's clearly breaking his own rules about the totems.
