The chart pictured in your email is a 100 year history of inflation-adjusted (actual nominal prices are adjusted for the effects of inflation over time) gold prices. However, whether you are looking at 50 years or 100, the pattern and price plots are the same. Possibly you are referring to a “nominal” price chart. Nominal prices don’t reflect the effects of inflation on the price.
Why does this chart differ dramatically from the gold price chart on bullion by post for the last 50 years?
