I think it would depend on the outfit you have fab them for you.  Shapeways
(http://www.shapeways.com/) is one of the more popular companies but the
costs are opaque.  A little searching suggests that you might be able to have
one for around $5us, possibly less if you buy a couple all at once.

3D Systems (http://www.3dsystems.com/quickparts) will cut you a price quote
upon request.

3D Rapid Print (http://www.3drapidprint.com/) offers multiple forms of
fabrication (UV stereolithography, selective laser sintering, and colorjet
printing to name a few).  This implies that their prices are going to be
pretty high.

If you opted to go this way, you would probably do better getting in touch
with your friendly neighborhood hackerspace.
