Crimes Act 1961

Crimes against rights of property - Arson, damage, and waste

284: Counterfeiting coin

You could also call this:

“This old rule about making fake money is no longer in use.”

This section of the law, which was about counterfeiting coins, no longer exists. It was removed from the Crimes Act 1961 on 1 October 2003. This means that the specific rules about making fake coins that used to be in this part of the law are not there anymore. If you want to know about laws related to counterfeiting coins now, you would need to look at other parts of New Zealand’s laws.
