7*10^902708+1 was the 84th-largest known prime in the world as of Jun 28 2013. Also largest known "base-10" form for a prime number. There are no other values of k in this sequence between 232920 and 902708 that yield a prime. - Edward A. Trice, Jul 03 2013
Apparently Edward A. Trice found another term in the gap mentioned above in May 2014. - Ray Chandler, Apr 29 2015
