Abstract
A coil component comprising a wire including the core wire made of copper or a copper alloy and an insulating coating film made of resin that covers a peripheral surface of the core wire, and a terminal electrode including a nickel-containing layer made of nickel or a nickel alloy and covering a bottom surface of a flange portion, and a tin-containing layer located on the nickel-containing layer and made of tin or a tin alloy. The terminal of the core wire has a contact surface in contact with the nickel-containing layer, side surfaces extending in a direction rising from the nickel-containing layer, and a top surface facing the contact surface. The side surfaces have a region not in contact with the tin-containing layer at least on a top surface side. In the region, copper of the core wire is not diffused into the tin-containing layer.
