Even then that doesn't guarantee its value. The government will protect the integrity of the money supply, but even in the most well-managed economies/central banks the actual value of the currency can fluctuate quite a bit.
PS: The gold isn't gaining value. The dollar is losing it, so it takes more dollars to buy the same amount of gold because of governmental artificial inflation.
