A simple method of manufacturing a magnetic head having a head face and including
a planar magnetic coil (7) which extends parallel to the head face. According
to the method, the magnetic coil is formed at a first side of a first substrate
(1). Thereafter, the first substrate provided with the magnetic coil is
adhered with its first side to a side of a second substrate, whereafter material
of the first substrate is removed from a second side of the first substrate (9),
the second side being turned away from the first side, in order to form the head
face, in such a manner that the magnetic coil is situated near to the head face.
