The chance that the number is odd is 5 out of ten, and the chance that the number is not 1 is 9 out of ten.
For the difference of two primes to be an odd number, one of the primes would have to be even, but there's only one even prime -- 2 -- and the difference of two and any prime greater than 9 would have a difference greater than 7.

 The United States Mint
Quarters and dimes are composed of cupro-nickel clad, with a pure copper core, and an outer layer of a 75 percent copper, 25 percent nickel alloy.
Reeded edges were eventually incorporated into the design of these denominations to deter counterfeiting and fraudulent use of the coins, for example, filing down the edges in an attempt to recover the precious metals.
For example, the 10-cent (dime) and one-cent coins are similar in size; the reeding of the dime makes it easily identifiable by touch.

 On the "Electric Sun" Hypothesis
The Reynolds number is defined as (v)(l)/(nu) where "v" is the vertical velocity of the convecting parcel, "l" is the length of the parcel, and "nu" is the kinematic viscosity of the fluid.
First, he thought that convection was controlled by the Reynolds number, which it is not; it is the Rayleigh number that does that.
So even if the total number of electrons seems like enough for an electric sun, getting them to the sun is quite a chore, since they move in excess of escape velocity, and are pushed off by the magnetic field.
