Yep: Gold during deflation From Ascani:
" During the deflation of 1814-1836 the purchasing power of gold doubled. That means holders of gold in 1814 who could buy one man's suit for one ounce of gold could, in 1836, buy two men's suits for that same one ounce of gold.
During the deflation of 1864-1897, gold's purchasing power increased 40%.
The worldwide deflation of 1920-1933 saw gold's purchasing power soar 251%. Against collapsing foreign currencies, gold soared thousands of percent."
