Cost of a gold carteuche/cartouche
 
I have a friend in Aswan who asked a jeweler how much it would cost for a gold carteuche with a four letter first name in English and the name in hieroglyphics on the back. He said it is 305 LE per gram available from 3 to 20 grams. Is that expensive? What is the average weight for a four letter carteuche in gold? What is the average cost of a gold carteuche? I was in Egypt in 2009 and I bought one that came with the chain. My house was burglarized, and the carteuche was stolen. My friend in Egypt is trying to help me buy another one.

If anyone has some knowledge of gold car touches in Egypt, can you assist me in some way? I just need a little guidance.

Thanks
