That depends on what in your opinion is value and currency. But I think that debasement in this case can be described as inflation, increase in amount which leads to decrease in quality and value.

I can only see a few ways it could work:

Physical-let's say a user of debasement fights a knight in steel armor that he cannot penetrate initially. The user activates his ability and applies it to knight's armor. Its amount increases, its quality decreases. Steel begins to inflate, bloat with tumor-like lumps of unworked metal and rust slowly. It became brittle and heavy, slowed down its user and can now be penetrated due to quality of metal decreasing. If this was used on a living human being, depending on how fast the effect takes place, it may look like a dude suddenly boiled, rotted and bloated from the inside before exploding into a cloud of red mist and bone dust. May include dissipation of energy and force(stretching effects of set value over a bigger area).

Global-changes properties of things on massive scale, probably based on economical idea of value. Inflating value of humanity may cause humans to become weaker, dumber or for them to overpopulate, thus lowering the cost of every human life. Inflating value of gold may increase its amount or make it look not as appealing, maybe even increasing its general accessibility. Inflating value of a godlike being may cause it to split into many deities which can be taken down one by one even if the initial being was unbeatable.

Mental-instead of actually lowering value of something, it could change how people perceive the world around them. By changing how much two lovers value each other you could break them apart. You may lower how much a ruler values his citizens and make him into a tyrant. Or drive a man to suicide by making him value nothing in life. However, this might be the only power of debasement that can be used for good. I'll let your imagination do the trick.

There are probably pages for these though, but they can be viewed as a combination of different abilities.
