How many postcard stamps do you need to mail a letter?

If the value of the two postcard stamps equals at least 55 cents, the current rate for “regular” letters (under 1 ounce, between 3–1/2″ high x 5″ and 6–1/8″ high x 11–1/2″, and less than 1/4″ thick), they would suffice. Two Postcard stamps would be more than enough, if you don’t mind overpaying for stuff.
