A score is 20 years. Abraham Lincoln's famous speech that begins "4 score and 7 years ago", means 87 years.

Twenty (20).
From the 1800's, simply from the word 'score' meaning twenty, derived apparently from the ancient practice of counting sheep in lots of twenty, and keeping tally by cutting ('scoring') notches into a stick.
