by W.W.Rouse Ball & H.S.M. Coxeter, Twelfth Ed., p. 14.

Answer : for example,
312 x 221 = 68952
213 x 122 = 25986
See here how Dr Huen Y.K. (Singapore) tackles this issue analytically.

Note : Dr. Huen Y.K. has a very interesting website about
Goldbach's Sequences that's worth more than a casual visit.

Dr Huen also found something which may be of interest to the readers.

Here I collect websources about palindromic DNA
