Does my '50 use 1 or 2 keys from the factory?

Going to purchase key blanks and remove my cylinders (ignition and door) and have them keyed. Does the door and ignition use the same key from the factory?

Thanks

most gm vehicles did/do this ^^^
imo since your keying everything do it with one key
no sense having 1 key hanging off the ignition switch marking up the dash paint

Maybe a second question is warranted : 60s GM cars use two different physical keys, a stop sign key for the ignition and a round top key for the trunk. Are your trucks using similar different keys to what I described?
