'''Koins''' are [[Kremling]]s encountered in every level of the games ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. Koins wear buckets on their head and carry a shield which has a [[DK Coin]] attached to it. The name Koin derives from the words "Coin" and "Kremling" or ''Donkey Kong Country'' developers spelling many words that start with "c" with a "k", like many other Kremling names. According to the game's credits, Koins belong to the "[[Kremling Kreeps]]" enemy class.

If the [[Kong]]s approach a Koin, he will simply bash them away; if they attempt to jump on him he will simply raise his shield and block the jump. Koins are immune to almost any kind of attack.  Even lightning bolts and [[TNT Barrel]]s are useless against them. Fortunately, [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] can defeat a Koin by using a [[Steel Keg]]. They have to throw the Steel Keg over him, which will then rebound off a wall (sometimes the Kongs must find another way to defeat Koin using the Steel Keg) and hit Koin in the back, defeating him and giving Dixie and Kiddy a DK Coin as reward. [[File:KoinPA.PNG|thumb|left|A '''Koin''', as seen in [[Dixie Kong's Photo Album]].]]Most of the time, Koins are found near the beginning or the end of the level. After the DK Coin is collected, a Koin will use a trash can's lid as a shield.
