Last night on the 'Science' channel "How Do They Do That" was a longer than usual description of how H & H do some of what they do.
It was a tour of how they do replicas. There was a glimpse of a tag with price. I think it was £144,000; I'll check I recorded that section.
It was 144,580 + VAT. The voice over said it required 1000 hours.
Some engraving was shown briefly with a woman engraver. The engraving was modest; so, I can imagine what they charge for one of Phil's.

the figure you quoted was probably for a pair. Single top end guns for a holland and holland retails at around the £65000 to £80000 mark. But of course with top end engravind that's another matter!

The ticket was attached to one rifle among a group, all of which had tags.
I checked the video twice. But it's all fantasy to me.
