Joe Coyne, aka The Penny Plunderer, was a notorious thief remembered for a series of bizarre heists that targeted rare coins from exhibits across Gotham. It was this unique modus operandi that earned him his moniker.
While he was one of Batman's earliest cases, his legacy would always be that his final confrontation with the Dark Knight led his adversary to obtain one of the Batcave's most famous mementoes; a novelty, oversized coin.
This ill-fated scheme, where he foolishly crossed paths with former District Attorney Harvey Dent, aka Two-Face, resulted in his arrest and conviction on the grounds of theft and one count of murder.
