Indian Penal Code, 1860
Section 234
repealedMaking or selling instrument for counterfeiting Indian coin
Whoever makes or mends, or performs any part of the process of making or mending or buys, sells or disposes of, any die or instrument, for the purpose of being used, or knowing or having reason to believe that it is intended to be used, for the purpose of counterfeiting Indian coin, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to seven years, and shall also be liable to fine.
Why this exists
This section mirrors the previous one but applies a stiffer maximum sentence — seven years instead of three — specifically for tools and dies meant to counterfeit Indian coin, again reflecting the law's heightened concern for protecting the nation's own currency compared to coin generally.
