But thanks to the $10 bill, we also know what Hamilton looks like, and he actually had a hand in the Constitution.J. L.

In the back of the pamphlet, with the credits, is a picture of Jefferson. Now, while the pamphlet never says that Jefferson wrote the Constitution, it seems like a very odd image choice for educational literature dedicated explicitly to a document Jefferson had no direct hand in.
