A thin type battery having a electricity generating element disposed in a sealed chamber formed by a laminated sheathing. The laminated sheathing forms the sealed chamber by overlapping and airtightly adhering opposing surfaces of the laminated films at a primary sealing area and at a secondary sealing area which is perpendicular to the direction of the primary sealing area. Collector terminals are connected to a positive electrode and to a negative electrode of the electricity generating element. The collector terminal are airtightly crimped in the secondary sealing area of the laminated sheathing. Also, the collector terminals extend outwardly of the laminated sheathing. The primary sealing part of the laminated sheathing is located over a surface of the electricity generating element.
