"Still, when adjusted for inflation, gold remains well below its all-time high. An ounce of gold at $875 in 1980 would be worth $2,115 to $2,200 today."
Stevenson Jacobs, AP; January 11, 2008
Keep in mind that when oil hit records near $60 a barrel back in 2005 it was common to report that it was still below its inflation adjusted high of $100 a barrel. Well oil is now very close to $100 a barrel and I suspect that gold is going to match its 1980 high adjusted for inflation or not.
