COMMENTS
Given positive integer x, let y be the greatest integer < x that is not in the sequence (and thus is a member of A129459). Then x is in the sequence iff neither x nor y share any decimal digit with x * y.
For each k >= 1, at least one of (10^k - 1)/3 = 3...33 and (10^k + 2)/3 = 3...34 is in the sequence, as their product is (10^(2*k) + 10^k - 2)/9 = 1..12...2. Similarly, at least one of (2*10^k - 2)/3 = 6...66 and (2*10^k + 1)/3 = 6...67 is in the sequence. In particular, the sequence is infinite.

EXAMPLE
a(6) = 16 is a term because 15 is the greatest integer < 16 that is not in the sequence, and neither 16 nor 15 shares a digit with 16 * 15 = 240.
