Original Abstract Submitted

To suppress deformation of a mounting portion, a coil component includes a drum core including a winding core portion, a first flange portion, and a second flange portion. The coil component includes a first metal terminal. The first metal terminal includes a joining portion, a mounting portion, and an extending portion. A first wire end of the first wire is connected to a surface of the joining portion facing a first positive direction. The mounting portion is located closest to the first positive direction in the first metal terminal. The extending portion connects the mounting portion and the joining portion. The extending portion includes a second portion having a thickness dimension smaller than the thickness dimension of the mounting portion.
