1980-S pennies were only issued in proof sets. At a minimum, they are worth about 75 cents. The highest grade proof condition pennies are worth $4.00 and up.
One cent, although I understand that the "melt value" of the metal it is composed of (95% copper and 5% tin and zinc) is closer to 1.5 cents (it is, by the way, illegal to melt down US coins for their metal value). In Proof condition, a 1980-S penny (minted in San Francisco) would be worth about $2.25.
All Lincoln cents minted between 1909 and 1981 (except for 1943) have the same copper content: 95% copper with 5% zinc. The metal ratio was changed in 1982.
No. Remember, cents struck at Philadelphia don't carry a mint mark even though all other denominations have had a P mint mark since 1980.
The coin has face value only.
The lack of a mint mark means it was struck in Philadelphia, and value is 1 cent.
The main difference between a 1958 penny and a 1980 penny is their composition. The 1958 penny is made of 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc, whereas the 1980 penny is made of 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper. Additionally, the design and mint marks on the coins may be different based on the year of issue.

I have a 1980 penny with Martin Luther King Jr.s head stamped on it next to Lincoln's head and I have a co-worker who collects coins who says it is not worth anymore than a penny because it was not stamped at the mint. It is stamped not rsised as part of the coin.
No, it depends on what the penny has been trough ex:a 2008 penny will weigh more than a 1980 penny because the 1980 penny would be wore down over time causing it to weigh less then a 2008 penny

Your coin was part of a "state set" where a private company stamped ordinary cents with the postal codes for each state and sold them as "collectibles". OH stands for Ohio. However, collectors consider it to be a damaged coin worth only face value.
