I have no idea. The tolls seem completely random. I've had one gold and been 
taxed 6 silver, then had 5 gold and 3 gems and not been taxed at all. Or had 
not a single coin or item on me and been turned back because I couldn't pay 
the 3 silver tax.

Sometimes it really sucks to be a commoner! :p

Sure, as an adventurer it really sucks to be taxed so heavily. But on the other 
hand, it's just seeing the opposite side of the coin. We've been playing the 
privileged nobles who are the beneficiary of all those taxes for a long time. Now 
we get to see the other side and experience where those taxes actually come 
from.
