Character History
Joe Coyne began his career selling newspapers for only a penny, but he was soon caught stealing pennies. He proceeded to commit crimes which centered around pennies. The giant penny often shown in the Batcave is a trophy of Batman's defeat of The Penny Plunderer. Though he is a classic adversary of Batman, he was recently been retconned out of Batman's rogues gallery.



The giant penny has also been the focus of a retcon and is now canonically known as an item that Two-Face attempted to use to crush Batman.Two-Face later said, "They actually let him keep it."
