Framed hand Painted Egyptian pictures on papyrus

hello my name is Robert, let me start off by saying i do not know anything about paintings so please take it easy on me. i bought these two painting at an estate sale. both of these painting have a certificate of authenticity. On the certificate has the signature of Hassan Ragab, the President of The Papyrus Insitute. on the certification says the work was hand-crafted and hand-painted by The Papyrus Institute Of Cairo, Egypt. Now I've seen one of these exact paintings with the same frame online for 500.00 and claims it is painted with 24 carat gold (Which I really doubt that). I hope you people can help me out   with this one. Both painting's are 24" by 31" with the frame. if you have any question please let me know. thank you. 

here is the Link to the pictures, Enjoy.
