COMMENTS
Numbers n such that (150*10^n + 3)/9 is prime.
Numbers n such that digit 1 followed by n >= 0 occurrences of digit 6 followed by digit 7 is prime.
Numbers corresponding to terms <= 846 are certified primes.

FORMULA
a(n) = A102940(n+1) - 1. - Robert Price, Nov 15 2014
EXAMPLE
167 is prime, hence 1 is a term.
