%N Minimum digit out of both prime factors of the numbers in A046376.

%C Conjecture: a(n) is never greater than 3.

%C Suggested by this old JRM problem: "Find a composite palindrome larger than 343 whose prime factors are palindromes consisting of digits greater than 3."

%e a(9)=1 because the factors of A046376(9)= 262 are 2*131 and the minimum digit is 1.
