%N Cubes that become prime when their most significant (or leftmost) digit is removed.

%C This is to A225873 as cubes A000578 are to squares A000290.

%H Christian N. K. Anderson, <a href="/A226090/b226090.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

%e a(1) = 27 because removing the leftmost digit gives 7, a prime.

%e a(8) = 50653 because removing the leftmost digit gives 0653 = 653, which is prime.

%e a(21) = 5000211 because removing the leftmost digit gives 000211 = 00211 = 0211 = 211, which is prime.
