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
All the terms in this sequence, except a(1) end in digit 6.
All the terms except a(2) are congruent to 1 (mod 3).
All terms except a(1) are of the form 10*p+6 where p is a prime of the form 10*x^2 + 8*x + 1 or 10*x^2 + 12*x + 3. The Bunyakovsky conjecture implies that there are infinitely many of both of these types. - Robert Israel, Jan 12 2016
EXAMPLE
196 = 14^2 becomes the prime 19 when its rightmost digit is removed.
3136 = 56^2 becomes the prime 313 when its rightmost digit is removed.
