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”).

Spelling out the characters (digits and commas) of the sequence and replacing letters A..Z with numbers 1..26 gives back the sequence.

COMMENTS
A sequence with this property cannot start otherwise since 2 is the only digit equal to the first digit of the "code" (1-26) of the first letter of its English name.
EXAMPLE
Spelling out the sequence data character-wise yields "two zero comma two three comma one five ..."
Coding the letters A..Z by 1..26 yields again the sequence 20, 23, 15, 26, 5, 18, 15, 3, 15, 13, 13, ...
