If these methods don't work, using a can opener to puncture the lid can release the vacuum seal and make it easier to remove.
You can try running the lid under hot water for a few seconds to help expand the metal, then gently twist and lift the lid off using a towel for grip. If that doesn't work, tapping the side of the lid with a knife handle can help loosen it. Alternatively, use a rubber band around the lid for extra grip.

A coffee can lid is just that, a lid that cap a tin of coffee grounds or beans. In older cans and more high quality grades of coffee, the can and lid are made entirely of metal. Modern convenience and mass production usually sees coffee can lids now made of plastic, much like a peanut tin lid, complete with a peel-back metal seal.
