If you look at the sequence, you'll notice that every number is prime. Also, if you reverse each number, you get:
16,196,361,784,1024
and each of these numbers are perfect squares. So which number is prime and if reversed is a perfect square? Well to save you time the number is 9631. The reverse of that number, 1369, is a perfect square, and 9631 is prime.
So the next number in the sequence is 9361
