ben franklin was the president of pensylvania
hamilton create the first american "political party" and was secretary of the tresury.. that's almost like president
I'm geussing you are only talking about american currency though..
Salmon Portland Chase U.S. Treasury Secretary and Chief Justice of the United States.
Daniel Webster and Pocahontas
etc.. however that is not current tresury bills. Historic bills are a different matter.. as the US currency system has change a bit over time. "Anyone" use to be able to own gold and make bank notes.. but it became more structured.

If you are limiting your question to US currency...
Salmon P Chase on the $10,000 bill was not a US President.
From the www.treas.gov site:
United States currency notes now in production bear the following portraits: George Washington on the $1 bill, Thomas Jefferson on the $2 bill, Abraham Lincoln on the $5 bill, Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill, Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill, Ulysses S. Grant on the $50 bill, and Benjamin Franklin on the $100 bill.
There are also several denominations of currency notes that are no longer produced. These include the $500 bill with the portrait of William McKinley, the $1,000 bill with a portrait of Grover Cleveland, the $5,000 bill with a portrait of James Madison, the $10,000 bill with a portrait of Salmon P. Chase, and the $100,000 currency note bearing a portrait of Woodrow Wilson

Nope:
$2 bill with Susan. B. Anthony and the $1,000,000 million dollar bill with The Statue of Liberty.
