An electric contact includes a bulge-shaped contact having a bulge shape, and a plate-shaped contact that has a plate shape and comes into electrical contact with an apex portion of the bulge-shaped contact. The bulge-shaped contact has a silver-tin alloy layer and a silver coating layer that coats the surface of the silver-tin alloy layer and is exposed at an outermost surface. The plate-shaped contact has a silver layer that does not have a silver-tin alloy layer directly below and is exposed at the outermost surface. Also, a connector terminal pair has such an electric contact in a contacting portion.
