COMMENTS
More generally, the sequence: "integer coefficients of A(x), where 1<=a(n)<=m, such that A(x)^(1/m) consists entirely of integer coefficients", appears to have a unique solution for all m>0. Are these sequences ever periodic?

a(k)=0 (mod 11) when k not= 0 (mod 11); a(0)=1, a(11)=1, a(22)=7, a(33)=4, a(44)=9, a(55)=5, a(66)=5, ...

a[0] = 1; a[n_] := a[n] = Block[{k = 1, s = Sum[a[i]*x^i, {i, 0, n-1}]}, While[ Union[ IntegerQ /@ CoefficientList[ Series[(s+k*x^n)^(1/11), {x, 0, n}], x]] != {True}, k++ ]; k]; Table[ a[n], {n, 0, 71}] (* Robert G. Wilson v *)
