Comments

Using only base-6 digits 0,1,2,3,4,5, let s be a palindrome and put a(1) = s. Let a(2) be the least palindromic prime having s in the middle; for n > 2, let a(n) be the least palindromic prime have a(n-1) in the middle. Then (a(n)) is the sequence of minimal nested palindromic base-6 primes with seed s.

Example

a(3) = 1252521 is the least base-6 prime having a(2) = 525 in its middle. Triangular format:
         2
        525
      1252521
     512525215
  102512525215201
5110251252521520115

Mathematica

s = {2}; base = 6; z = 20; Do[NestWhile[# + 1 &, 1, ! PrimeQ[tmp = FromDigits[Join[#, IntegerDigits[Last[s]], Reverse[#]] &[IntegerDigits[#, base]], base]] &];
AppendTo[s, FromDigits[IntegerDigits[tmp, base]]], {z}]; s  (* A262649 *)
Map[FromDigits[ToString[#], base] &, s]  (* A262650 *)
