The reader never sees Lily's patronus, but when Harry views Snape's last memories in the Pensieve in DH, Snape casts his doe patronus in Dumbledore's office and says something to the effect that it's the same patronus as Lily's.  So the implication is that Snape saw Lily cast her doe patronus at some point during her lifetime.
