coal is created by the deposition and compaction of huge plant(organic) material deposited into a basin,with the increasing depth the high rank of coal is formed. The order is:-

peat>lignite>bituminous>anthracite

Peat is formed at shallow depth and on moving downward anthracite is formed at greater depth.
