They're different things. I have 3 coats, though.

EDIT: The difference is one is waisted and the other isn't

I call it both.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacket
A jacket is a mid-stomachlength garment for the upper body. A jacket typically has sleeves, and fastens in the front or slightly on the side. A jacket is generally lighter, tighter-fitting, and less insulating than a coat, which is outerwear. Some jackets are fashionable, while others serve as protective clothing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat
A coat is a garment worn on the upper body by either sex, for warmth or fashion. Coats typically have long sleeves and are open down the front, closing by means of buttons, zippers, hook-and-loop fasteners, toggles, a belt, or a combination of some of these.

This.

I generally wear jackets, but have a couple of decent coats. My parkas fall somewhere between. But I'm willing to hang my jackets with coathangers or on a coat rack. I rarely check them in a cloakroom. And my heavy leather jacket serves often as my winter coat. And when I say, "I'll be with you in a minute, let me get my coat", it's most often a jacket.

This.

Even more complicated when you realize that the same word can apply to different things as well. For instance, a suit jacket is different from a bomber jacket.

Full metal coat just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Voted "jacket" since I wear them more often than coats.

I wouldn't call most jackets coats nor would I call most coats jackets. They are what they are.
