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.
