A quick browse on the internet turned up antique 2 gallon copper buckets, weight around 4.5 pounds. So the price should be the price of 4.5 pounds of copper plus labor. Labor is usually 1 to 4 times material costs (LTC3 p.23) and a cauldron is pretty simple, so likely the low end there.

So using the LTC3 range for copper prices of $4.30 to $18, that 2 gallon cauldron should be between $38.70 to $162, depending on the price of copper.
