Carol prime, near square

Arbitrarily dubbed a Carol prime by the original investigator in reference to a personal acquaintance. Several people have deprecated this practice.

Verification data:

The Top 5000 Primes is a list for proven primes only. In order to maintain the integrity of this list, we seek to verify the primality of all submissions.  We are currently unable to check all proofs (ECPP, KP, ...), but we will at least trial divide and PRP check every entry before it is included in the list.
