Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%S 3,7,13,43,73
%N Prime numbers p with the property that the sequence p-1*2, p-2*3, p-3*4, p-4*5, ..., consists only of primes and a final 1.
%C Related to the fact that the list 5, 8, 13, 29, 53, 173, 293 gives the only positive discriminants of class number 1 of the form j^2+1.
%C If we allow the first number that we subtract to be greater than 2, the next sequence after 73, 71, 67, 61,... is 2003, 1831, 1657, 1481, 1303, 1123, 941, 757, 571, 383, 193, 1: start with 2003 and subtract 172,174,176, etc., which is an amusing property of 2003.
%e For example 73 71 67 61 53 43 31 17 1. If the GRH is true this is the last example.
