The pressure contacting connection type contact has a base portion, a connecting terminal for a mating side contact, and a pressure contacting terminal. The pressure contacting terminal is provided with a base end section opposing an other end side of the base portion, where an extending piece extending from second both side portions of an other side of the base portion is folded such that mutual piece thickness faces are opposed, and a pair of pressure contacting pieces having spring characteristics where, from the base end section, the extending piece extends away from the base portion to the tip portion side such that the piece thickness faces are opposed, and in addition rises obliquely at an opposite side of the protrusion direction connecting terminal, and an open angle portion of the tip side of the pressure contacting pieces in which the central conductor can be inserted from an outer direction.
