Thomas Jefferson stars on the five cent piece, commonly called the nickel. He is also the star of the notoriously unloved and unused $2 bill.

Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. As President, he bought Louisiana from France for $15 million. He apparently fathered a child with his slave Sally Hemmings. Despite that, he's one of the good guys.
