We investigate the Larmor precession of a non-relativistic neutral spin-1/2 particle in a uniform constant magnetic field confined to the region of a one-dimensional arbitrary potential barrier. With the help of a general spin coherent state it is explicitly shown that the spin precession time is equal to the dwell time. For the special case of a symmetric rectangular potential barrier, the precession time is also in agreement with the transmission time. We present a numerical estimation of the precession time showing an apparent superluminal tunnelling.
