No idea what a copper coated tin means, copper is often used for distillation of spirits gin, whisky etc. I suspect it comes down to two nations separated by a language. Something similar to the USA referring to canning when they mean bottling.
Never mind though, technically there is no reason why you shouldn't use glass or stainless steel.
lots of resource on the web
