The $1$st prime number which is not the difference between a power of $2$ and a power of $3$.

The $4$th integer after $2$, $5$, $17$ at which the prime number race between primes of the form $4 n + 1$ and $4 n - 1$ are tied.

The $5$th Proth prime after $3$, $5$, $13$, $17$:

$41 = 5 \times 2^3 + 1$

The $5$th prime $p$ such that $p \# - 1$, where $p \#$ denotes primorial (product of all primes up to $p$) of $p$, is prime:

$3$, $5$, $11$, $13$, $41$
