Ceylon cinnamon only contains trace amounts of coumarin. Cassia cinnamon has much higher levels.

Edit: between Ceylon and Cassia Cinnamon, Ceylon has the lowest amount of Coumarin amounting to only 0.004% or 250 times less. Source: https://www.srilankabusiness.com/blog/difference-between-cassia-and-ceylon-cinnamon.html
