Since the digital reversal 191689 is prime, the prime exponent 986191
is an emirp.

There, I mixed a serious and impressive result with a base sequence
that not everyone cares for;)

And if you turn that reversal upside-down, you get 689161 = 11 * 31 *
43 * 47 which is a 4-brilliant number.  What's that sound?  Wagstaff
rolling in his grave?  Sorry...
