I just mailed a letter to the Philippines awhile back. It costs 98 cents.
Currently 28 cents for mailing within the US.

The stamp has to be accepted where you mail the letter. If you are mailing in Canada, you need a Canadian stamp. If you are in the US mailing to Canada, you can use a US stamp.

As of my last update, mailing a standard letter from Seattle, WA, to the Philippines typically costs around $1.40 for a First-Class International stamp. Prices may vary based on weight, size, and the specific mailing service chosen. It's best to check with the United States Postal Service or other carriers for the most current rates and options.
The cost of an international stamp from the U.S. to the Philippines depends largely on where the letter is originating from and where it is going. For exact prices, the U.S. postal service has a calculator available on their website.
As of October 2023, a US Global Forever Stamp is worth $1.50. This stamp allows for mailing a one-ounce letter to any destination outside the United States, regardless of future price increases. It simplifies international mailing by ensuring that the postage is always valid for the specified service.

A Postage Stamp.
Depending on where one is mailing a postcard from to France, the price on a stamp will vary in cost. If one is mailing the postcard from a location close to France the price is not going to be as high as it owuld be if one were to mail the postcard from across the globe.
The orientation of the stamp is not a factor in mailing. It doesn't matter.
