Coal is not actually a compound, but rather a mixture of compounds and so it does not have a chemical formula.
However depending on the type of coal, it is composed of between 50-100% carbon, by mass, with the rest being Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, and trace amounts of Sulfur.
Lignate has the lowest carbon content followed by sub-bituminous coal, bituminous coal, and finally anthracite which is almost pure carbon.

Coal is a mixture of several complex hydrocarbons. The hydrocarbons are fused aromatic ring compounds, each containing a vast number of rings.
Coal is formed when areas of vegetation (forests) are inundated by the sea. Sendiments form on top of the vegetation sealing in the organic matter where it is acted on by heat+pressure thus reacting to form coal.
Each coal seem contains at it's top surface a layer of fossilized soil.

I believe that coal is a hydrocarbon, but a very heavy one (that is, big molecules with lots of carbons in the chain, along with the necessary hydrogens attached). You can probably get a good answer in Wikipedia.
Meanwhile, I'll guess C50 H102.
