A statue to Jackson exists on the State Capitol grounds of Raleigh, North Carolina. That statue controversially identifies him as one of the "presidents North Carolina gave the nation," and he is featured alongside James Polk and Andrew Johnson, both U.S. presidents born in North Carolina.[3]

Jackson portrait on obverse $20 bill
Jackson has appeared on U.S. banknotes as far back as 1869, and extending into the 21st century. His image has appeared on the $5, $10, $20, and $10,000 note. Most recently, his image has appeared on the U.S. $20 Federal reserve note beginning in 1928.[11] In 2016, Treasury SecretaryJack Lew announced his goal that by 2020 an image of Harriet Tubman would replace Jackson's depiction on the front side of the $20 banknote, and that an image of Jackson would be placed on the reverse side, though the final decision will be made by his successors.[12]
Jackson has appeared on several postage stamps. He first appeared on an 1863 two-cent stamp, which is commonly referred to by collectors as the Black Jack
Andrew Jackson is one of the few American presidents to appear on U.S. Postage more than the usual two or three times, appearing on at least twelve different issues as of 2023. The U.S. Post Office released a postage stamp in his honor 18 years after his death, with the issue of 1863, a 2-cent black issue, commonly referred to by collectors as the 'Black Jack'.[13] due to the large portraiture of Jackson on its face printed in pitch black.[14] During the American Civil War, the Confederate government issued two Confederate postage stamps bearing Jackson's portrait.[15][lower-alpha 1]

Jackson and his wife Rachel were the main subjects of a 1951 historical novel by Irving Stone, The President's Lady, which told the story of their lives up until Rachel's death. The novel was the basis for the 1953 film of the same name starring Charlton Heston as Jackson and Susan Hayward as Rachel.[17][18]
