A coil member according to an embodiment includes a substrate including a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; a wiring pattern disposed on the substrate; and a metal coating pattern connected to the wiring pattern, the metal coating pattern being thinner than the wiring pattern.

An embodiment of the present invention relates to a secondary battery comprising: an electrode assembly which has an anode tab formed at one end thereof and a cathode tab formed at the other end thereof; a case in which the electrode assembly is received and which is open at both opposite ends thereof; and a pair of cap assemblies which are coupled to the respective open ends of the case. According to the present invention, the cap assemblies are formed at the opposite sides of the case and thus cathode and anode terminals of the cap assemblies can have the same direction as the cathode and anode tabs of the electrode assembly, which makes it possible to simplify the shape of and minimize the length of a current collector.
