Auto_Increment Stating Number

What is the syntax for starting an Auto_Increment at a certain value like
1500 for example?

I have tried this string but MySQL gives me an error.

CREATE TABLE Test (TestID int not null auto_increment auto_increment =
1500,Year INT,Month INT,Day INT,Name VARCHAR(50));

Also can an auto_increment value contain characters like 1500AB?

Thanks,
