The person featured on the obverse (heads) side of the U.S. nickel is Thomas Jefferson , the third President of the United States.
Since 1938, his image has been displayed on the five-cent coin, with the most recent portrait, introduced in 2006, depicting him facing forward instead of in profile. The reverse (tails) side of the coin features Monticello, Jefferson’s home in Virginia.

Who is on each coin and bill?
I can help with that. Money now in circulation bears the images of seven U.S. presidents — George Washington on the $1 bill and quarter coin, Thomas Jefferson on the $2 bill and nickel, Abraham Lincoln on the $5 bill and penny, Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill and Ulysses S. Grant on the $50 bill.
