A rotor of a rotating electric machine according to the present invention is configured in such a way that a conductor wire 40 is wound around a bobbin 50 having first and second latching sections 60 and 61 provided in such a way as to extend radially outward from first and second flange sections 51 and 52, respectively, provided respective axis-direction ends of a winding section 59, and includes a magnetic-field coil 15 in which a winding-end section 41 of the conductor wire 40 is wound and latched around the second latching section 61 and in which a lead wire 42 drawn from the winding-end section 41 of the conductor wire 40 by way of the second latching section 61 is wound and latched around the first latching section 60; the radial-direction length of the second latching section 61 is shorter than the radial-direction length of the first latching section 60.
