| Additional information |
The Tallgrass Prairie once covered roughly 170 million acres across North America; today less than four percent remains, nearly all of it in the Flint Hills of Kansas. Congress authorized the preserve itself only in 1996, making it one of the newer units in the National Park system and a late addition to the America the Beautiful quarter program, which ran from 2010 through 2021.
The .999 silver strikes were produced exclusively for collector sets — no silver quarters of this type entered circulation. KM#723a distinguishes the silver composition from the copper-nickel clad business strikes cataloged separately under KM#723.
