how to solve this problem

import Mathlib
open Polynomial
attribute [local simp] coeff_X
lemma coeff : Polynomial.coeff (1 : [X]) 2 = 0 := by

What have you tried?

This works:

import Mathlib
open Polynomial
attribute [local simp] coeff_X
lemma coeff : Polynomial.coeff (1 : [X]) 2 = 0 := by
  have : (1 : [X]) = Polynomial.C 1 := by exact rfl
  rw [this, Polynomial.coeff_C]
  simp
