There is no such thing as a 2004 silver penny, assuming you are referring to a U.S. one cent coin. Cents are made of zinc coated with copper plating. You could have either (a) a normal cent that someone dipped in acid, etching away the copper plating, or (b) a coin that was never plated at the mint in the first place. The first is considered to be an altered coin and is worth one cent. The second is a true error and might be worth 50 cents or a dollar. However you'd have to take the coin to a dealer to have it inspected first-hand.
