Euler’s lucky number

A prime number $p$ is one of Euler’s lucky numbers if $n^{2}-n+p$ for each $0<n<p$ is also a prime. Put another way, a lucky number of Euler’s plus the $n$ th oblong number produces a list of primes $p$ -long. There are only six of them: 2, 3, 5, 11, 17 and 41, these are listed in A014556 of Sloane’s OEIS.

41 is perhaps the most famous of these. We can verify that 2 + 41 is 43, a prime, that 47 is also prime, so are 53, 61, 71, 83, 97, and so on to 1601, giving a list of 41 primes. Predictably, 1681 is divisible by 41, being its square. For $n>p$ the formula does not consistently give only composites or only primes.
