Bronze caskets may be somewhat more expensive than copper caskets, but the price difference matters only in the lower price bracket of caskets made of semi precious metals; in the higher price brackets it seems to become irrelevant.

Is there a difference between a solid bronze and a bronze deposit casket?
Yes, there is a difference, but is less important than the difference between solid (sheet) bronze and cast bronze caskets. Solid bronze caskets are welded from sheets of wrought bronze. Bronze deposit caskets too, but they have an additional coat of bronze which is applied by an electrolytic (or similar) process to a base made of sheet bronze. This increases the thickness of the bronze walls and guarantees a smooth surface.

What type of bronze did the Romans use?
Bronze is an alloy made of copper and tin. The Romans, like other peoples in antiquity made alloys with varying percentages of tin and alloys which stood in between bronze and brass (which is an alloy with copper and zinc) by mixing copper, zinc and tin. The earliest tin alloys were made in the 4th millennium BC in Persia, Mesopotamia (present day Iraq) and China. Prior to this bronze was made by mixing copper with arsenic to make arsenic bronze. The use of tin made the bronze which made a superior quality of bronze and whose production was less hazardous. Later in history bronze alloys with tin and stannite (a type of iron) tin and phosphorus, tin and aluminium, aluminium, beryllium and iron have also been produced.
