We report the discovery of spiral-like structure in Hubble Space Telescope images of two dwarf galaxies (GMP 3292 and GMP 3629) belonging to the Coma Cluster. GMP 3629 is the faintest such galaxy detected in a cluster environment, and it is the first such galaxy observed in the dense Coma Cluster. The large bulge and the faintness of the broad spiral-like pattern in GMP 3629 suggest that its disk may have been largely depleted. We may therefore have found an example of the ``missing link'' in theories of galaxy evolution that have predicted that dwarf spiral galaxies, particularly in clusters, evolve into dwarf elliptical galaxies.
