The word on the dollar bill is "seclorum".

Yes, which is a late Latin spelling of the word, as you would know if you had read the Latin dictionary I linked you to earlier.

saeculum (poet., esp. Lucretian, sae-clum ; less correctly seculum, se-clum ), i, n. dim. [etym. dub.; perh. root si- = sa-; Gr. saô, to sift; Lat. sero, satus; whence Saturnus, etc.; hence, orig.]

I'll stick to Dan Brown thanks.

The same Dan Brown who thinks that Christ's divinity was invented by the Council of Nicaea (debunked here)? I'll pass on his "research", thank you.

FR corrupts the link, strange. Well, go to here and put "seclorum" in - you'll get the dictionary entry.
