It depends on what its denomination is and what design it has.
More-recent silver certificates (1920s-1950s) used designs similar to the old green-and-black Federal Reserve notes that were in circulation up to about 1990, so the date is usually near the bottom of the bill to the right of the portrait. There may or may not be a small letter next to the date; that's the series letter. Depending on the bill's date different series letters may be worth different amounts.
If you have an older silver certificate, please post a new question with a description of the bill including its denomination and the picture on the front. Note that the serial number is NOT necessary, though.
