| Additional information |
The Great Smoky Mountains quarter was part of the America the Beautiful series, which Congress authorized in 2008 to run through 2021 — one national park or federal site per state, territory, and district. The five-ounce silver bullion versions are struck at Philadelphia and track the exact specifications of the collector "burnished" pieces but without the 'P' mint mark, a distinction that matters to registry set builders chasing the full run.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park straddles the Tennessee–North Carolina border and was established in 1934, funded in part by a $5 million donation from John D. Rockefeller Jr. Tennessee's slot in the ATB program fell to 2014.
