%N Centered cubohemioctahedral numbers: a(n) = 2*n^3+9*n^2+n+1.

%C A faceting of the cuboctahedron, sharing the same square faces. The cubohemioctahedron has the same edge and vertex arrangement as the cuboctahedron. Beginning with the fourth term, the eight tetrahedral faces are each now "missing" a tetrahedron of size 1,4,10,20,35...(A000292). See A274974 centered octahemioctahedron for similar cuboctahedral faceting but with the square faces "missing."
