falsificación (forgery) y puesta en circulación de lo falsificado (uttering)
Explanation:
It is very difficult to answer this question without knowing what was "uttered" in this case. In the context of criminal law, “utter” denotes the putting into circulation of forged documents, money, etc. or counterfeited goods. It appears that the person in question was convicted not only of forgery, but also of putting the forged items into circulation (using a false document, spending false money, distributing counterfeit goods, etc).

To utter: "To put or send into circulation, especially to circulate a forged note as if genuine (She uttered a counterfeit $50 bill at the grocery store)"

Uttering: The crime of presenting a false or worthless instrument with the intent to harm or defraud. Also called "uttering a forged instrument."
