You can sift through the coal, pick out the rocks and wash out the dirt. You can separate coal from sand and such by doing a "hydrometer" type method put it in a tallish container of water and stir it vigorously. When it settles the sand will be on the bottom and the silty soil will stay suspended a long time or form a mud mat on the coal. The coal might even float, then it'd be really easy to separate. Water won't hurt the coal.

I could do that but it would eat up my already limited time. I’m going to keep the coal forge but it will probably serve as a table for my propane forge most of the time. Assuming of course that the propane doesn’t annoy me to the point that I go back to coal.
