Or, primes which are the concatenation of two consecutive odd numbers. - Parthasarathy Nambi, Apr 11 2005
There are very few terms with an odd integer length, i.e., which are the concatenation of two consecutive odd primes with different integer lengths. In the first 1000 terms, only 911 and 999910001 have an odd integer length. The next such term is 99999100001. The pattern is fairly obvious. - Harvey P. Dale, May 12 2026

EXAMPLE
The first term is 13 which is a prime and is the concatenation of 1 and 3 - the first two odd numbers.
