When manufacturing a magnetic body whose primary component is Ni—Zn ferrite, an iron oxide powder whose Mn content is 0.20 to 0.85 percent by mass is used as a raw material powder, or, in addition to using an iron oxide powder whose Mn content is 0.20 percent by mass or higher as a raw material powder, a mol ratio of Ni to Zn (Ni/Zn) in the ferrite material is determined based on the Mn content in the iron oxide powder and the raw material powders are compounded in such a way that the mol ratio is achieved. The magnetic body does not contain any additives as essential components other than the primary components of the Ni—Zn ferrite material. A coil component using the magnetic body has excellent direct-current superimposition property and magnetic permeability.
