This is a common mistake. The Copts are descendents of the first Christians in Egypt. So I suppose a coptic jar would be a jar made by them. But many people get this word wrong - what they meen is 'canopic jar' which is one of four jars made to hold intestines in (much) earlier pharonic burials, usually decorated with animal heads. They were found in the tombs of Tutankhamun and many other high profile Egyptian burials. I think in this instance you meen Canopic Jar. Tutankhamun et al were not Copts.
