Owen Vincent Coffin (June 20, 1836 – January 13, 1921) was an American politician and the 56th Governor of Connecticut from 1895 to 1897.

When the American Civil War broke out in 1861, he was a strong supporter of the Union, but physically barred from active service.

However, he served two terms as president of the Brooklyn YMCA and was active in the New York Committee of the United States Christian Commission.

He was secretary and treasurer of the Farmers and Mechanics Savings Bank of Middletown, and he held the same offices and that of director for several years in the old Air Line Railroad Company.

[2] Coffin left office on January 6, 1897, but stayed active in his business ventures, and in his civic and religious dealings.
