The U.S. never minted a silver penny. For starters, it would be worth more than a dime!
Your coin has 3 possible sources. Two aren't special but one is.
> It was plated for use in jewelry or something similar. That makes it an altered coin worth face value only.
> It was dipped in acid to etch away the outer copper plating to reveal the underlying zinc core. Again, it's an altered coin with no extra value.
> It's a zinc 1-cent blank that was never plated with copper at the Mint. That's a genuine Mint error and could be worth a significant amount - as much as $100 depending on how much of the plating is missing.
Unfortunately without seeing the coin in person and testing its weight, etc. it's not possible to say which you have. My best suggestion would be to have it examined in person by a dealer or appraiser who is knowledgeable about error coins.
One Cent is the value. The US has never made a silver penny. It may look like silver or have been silver plated but it has no collectible value.
The US has never made and never will make silver pennies. If a penny was silver it would be worth more than a dime.
It's worth exactly one cent.
That wasn't something done at the mint, rather the cent was likely plated with zinc or nickel. So it has little to no collector value. The US government has never struck a penny in silver.
All pennies since 1983 are made almost entirely of zinc, covered with a thin coating of copper. Therefore, what you have is either a zinc penny that did not get its copper coating (worth abuot a dollar), or a normal penny that has been silver plated (no added value). You should be able to determine this by weight. A normal penny will weigh 2.5 grams. So if yours weighs less, then it's missing its copper coating. If it weighs more, then it's been silver plated.

No such thing as a 94 silver penny.
There was never a silver Indian Head penny.
It is worth a penny.

It's steel, not silver, and it's worth about 5 cents.
The only "silver" penny was minted in 1943 to support the war effort. Yours is probably zinc plated.
There is no such thing as a silver 1990 penny, as U.S. pennies were made of 95% copper and 5% zinc from 1982 until the present, and prior to that, they were made of 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc. The last year U.S. pennies were made of silver was 1981, and those were only produced in very limited quantities for collectors. Therefore, a 1990 penny is not considered rare, nor is it made of silver.
It's worth exactly one cent.
