COMMENTS
Smallest member of a "sexy" prime quadruple.
For n > 1, a(n) ends in 1. - Robert Israel, Jul 16 2015
The only sexy prime quintuple corresponding to (p, p+6, p+12, p+18, p+24) starts with a(1) = 5, so this quintuple is (5, 11, 17, 23, 29) (see Wikipedia link and A206039). - Bernard Schott, Mar 10 2023
