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”).

COMMENTS
The sequence is probably infinite.
It appears that every integer occurs as the difference round((a(n+1)-a(n))/100); all numbers 1..228 occur as these differences for a(n) < 1000000000. - Hartmut F. W. Hoft, May 18 2017

EXAMPLE
Consecutive primes 10993 and 11003 differ by 10 and are in consecutive centuries, so 10993 is in the sequence.
