When do I pay a placement penalty, and how much is it?
The publisher confirmed the amounts and the rulebook's Placement Penalties section matches.

You pay it when another worker of any color, including your own, already sits in the same Diary Section. It is 3 Coins in a 2-player game and 2 Coins with 3 or 4 players, and it does not grow with the number of workers present. In 2- and 3-player games both pages of a Diary are one section, while in 4-player games each page is separate. Square or rectangular magnifying glasses never carry a penalty.
