Jackson's been on the $20 since 1929. He was promoted from the $10 (1923) and earlier the $5 (1869-1907), all essentially the same portrait. Before 1929, faces on the $20 included Washington, Grover Cleveland, Hugh McCulloch, concurrently on gold certificates, Federal Reserve notes, and National Bank notes, respectively.
