Coal is an organic substance, and does not have a "standard" weight per volume. It depends on the type of coal, and where it was mined. Additionally coal was delivered in different sized lumps or chunks, which also affected the weight per volume. A cubic foot of coal can weight from under 40 to over 60 pounds, so a cubic yard of coal (27 cubic feet) would run from roughly 1,080 to 1,620 pounds.
