The 100 dollar bill has Ben Franklin on it and he wasn't a president, and the 10 dollar bill shows the first USA Secretary of Treasury, Alexander Hamilton, who was NOT a president.
*also, the 1918 $500 dollar bill featured Chief Justice John Marshall, who never became the President
The $10,000 bill, while no longer available after 1969, is still U.S. Legal Tender and features the visage of Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase. Chase was Lincoln's Treasury Secretary during the American Civil War. Though he made several bids for President, he was never successful.
