COMMENTS
No other terms below 3*10^10.
No multiple of 3 or 5 can be in this sequence, since the numbers resulting from these concatenations are all congruent to 1 mod 15. - Alonso del Arte, Sep 16 2016
EXAMPLE
In base 15, 7654321 is 84557956 in decimal, and we verify that this is a multiple of 7, as 84557956/7 = 12079708. Hence 7 is in the sequence.
87654321 base 15 is 1451432956 and 1451432956/8 = 181429119.5. Hence 8 is not in the sequence.
