If you spend $40 to have it certified as an error (minted on a zinc planchet without the copper plating), it may bring $15. Otherwise, it's worth 1 cent. These unfinished planchet error coins generally sell for 50 cents to a dollar at coin shows.

How much is a 1991 silver penny worth in mint condition?

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.

How much is a silver 1990 penny worth?

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.
