Because the portrait the image is based on is like that. Hamilton is the only person featured on U.S. currency not born in the United States, as he was from the West Indies. Hamilton is one of two non-presidents featured on currently issued U.S. bills. The other is Benjamin Franklin, on the $100 bill.
