No, you didn't say 'per' anything.

If no time is specified, it is the change between then
(T0) and now (T1). At T0, when I was born, gold was worth
$27 an ounce. As of today, T1, I haven' died yet and gold
is worth $880 an ounce. According to my TI-34 that's
3259.25925925925925925925925925925 percent.

I don't believe that to b e strictly true. When we were on the gold
standard it was kept pretty level.
When we went off the gold standard gold shot up over night but I do
not believe the price of gold
has shot shot up a lot since then. I suspect copper was a better deal
