Unless there are small examples, it is unlikely that even two are prime for the same n. The density for each is clearly < 1/n, and sum 1/n^2 is finite.

I'm idly curious, but lack the gumption to calculate:

What happens if you
append on the left?
1 21 321 4321 54321 ... 10987654321 1110987654321
121110987654321 ...

What happens if you reflect the numbers?

123456789101112
--> 211101987654321

121110987654321 --> 123456789011121

What's the least N for
which all four are
prime?
