The gathering of taxes/tribute was vitally important to the prosperity of a king and his troops. This would usually take the form of a percentage of the crops grown or goods crafted. Almost never would taxes come in the form of gold coins. (A fact that is ignored by virtually every Robin Hood movie to ever exist) And to be honest it will rarely fit into a nice little trunk like the one pictured above.

Hence my not actually deciding what was being carried in that particular chest.
