It’s probably a translation thing. English probably got the word Jar from French but uses it in a slightly different way.

How effing big was that jar to hold so many coins?
Welp, there goes the value of my collection. Thanks, Science! 🤌🏼

But were there any pickled eggs?
Century eggs.
Multi millennium eggs.
