Abstract: The present invention provides an ignition coil which can be reduced in weight and cost while retaining the performance of conventional ignition coils. The objective of the present invention is to provide an ignition coil which can be manufactured using conventional processes, such that costs due to process switching are not incurred. The ignition coil is characterized by comprising: a pipe-shaped spool; and a wire wound on the outer circumference of the spool, wherein the wire is formed extending in one direction, and the central portion of a cross-section perpendicular to the direction of extension is formed of aluminum, while the outer surface of the cross-section is formed of copper.
