COMMENTS
The exponents that produce the number with a fixed number of copies of each digit are listed in sequence A217378. See there for further comments.
Since we allow A217378(n)=1, the sequence is well defined, with the upper bound a(n) <= 100...99 ~ 10^(10n-1) (n copies of each digit, sorted in increasing order, except for one "1" permuted to the first position). - M. F. Hasler, Oct 05 2012
What is the minimum value of a(n)? Can it be proved that a(n) > 2 for all n? - Charles R Greathouse IV, Oct 16 2012

EXAMPLE
The third term raised to the fifth power (A217378(3)=5), 643905^5 = 110690152879433875483274690625, has three copies of each digit (in its decimal representation), and no number smaller than 643905 has a power with this feature.
