It would be beyond rare because there are no real silver cents. You almost certainly have a plated coin that's worth only a penny.
There's a faint possibility that it's a genuine cent that never had its copper coating applied at the mint. That's actually an error coin and can be worth $50-$100. The only way to tell would be to have it examined in person by a knowledgeable dealer or appraiser. But that was to get your hopes up, it's worthless, give it to me.
There is no US silver penny dated 2001. Instead, what has happened is someone has stripped off the copper layer of the coin and left the zinc layer which looks silver-ish.
The weight of a 2007 Cent is 2.5 grams. Of this, 0.8% is copper.
The U.S. never minted a silver penny. It would have more than a dime's worth of silver in it. 1983 and later cents are all made of copper-coated steel so you may have a cent where the copper coating was removed with acid (worth only a penny) or was never plated in the first place (worth a significant amount). It would need to be inspected by a dealer who handles error coins.
A pennyweight is 24 grains, or 1 twentieth of a troy ounce. Used to be the weight of a silver penny.
If you check the back you'll find that you have a halfdollar. There has never been a US-issued Kennedy silver dollar.
The U.S. has never made one cent (penny's) coins from silver. The coin has likely been silver plated. It is not rare or special, it's just a penny.
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.

A 1943 silver penny, often referred to as a "steel penny," is actually made of steel coated with zinc and not silver. However, if you meant a 1943 copper penny, which is a rare error coin, it can be worth thousands of dollars, depending on its condition. Most standard 1943 steel pennies are worth only a few cents to a couple of dollars. Always verify with a coin expert or appraiser for accurate valuation.
