Magnetic core coil and electronic pen
A magnetic core coil has a core formed of a magnetic material, a coil wound around the core, and two terminals formed of a conductive material. The two terminals are fixed to the core, and first portions of the two terminals extend from one end of the core in an axial direction of the core. A first end and a second end of the coil are electrically connected to the first portions of the two terminals which protrude from the one end of the core in the axial direction of the core. The magnetic core coil can be made small in thickness (radial size) and size, and can be produced in a reduced number of production steps and at low cost.
