They sell in the $125 to 300 range depending on condition and caliber with the flintlock and .54 calibers selling at the high end, and kit guns (serial number preceded with a "K") and .45 calibers at the lower end.The best way to determine actual value is to search the on-line auctions, such as gun broker and auction arms or even proxibid enter your details in the search and see what is selling and for how much. You can also search the archives and or sold items to get an idea of what your gun is selling for. Another place to look is The blue book of modern black powder values, available from midway USA and blue book publications as well as many of the other hunting and firearm stores. Also available to NRA members on - line for free on there web page. That will give you an idea of the general value. Guns tend to have some regional value too, say a Thompson Center Seneca may be worth a bit more in the north east than in the mid west, and a Ruger old army may sell higher in the northwest than the east coast. Don't forget condition has allot to do with value, and with black powder the bore is king. You may have a gun worth for example $500, but the same gun with a bad or rusted bore may only be worth $150 so compare apples to apples.
It's a 54 caliber round ball
You will have to call TC to find out.
$1,800 I can't imagine $1,800 for a T/C muzzle loader! This is obviously not the inexpensive Renegade Model which as used brings around $125 and like new might go for $250. Is this 54 caliber percussion Hawken Model a custom shop or commemorative model? <><><> Agree- depending on condition, these sell for around $200.

The Thompson Center hawken that I have,has a barrel that is 28 inches long.
On 90% of the guns it is stamped on the right side of the barrel as "Thompson/Center Rochester New Hampshire" and "HAWKEN 45 Cal" along with a serial number on the left side. If not the easiest way would be to go to gunbroker.com or Google and search for Thompson center hawken, compare the pictures and description to what you have.
Most black powder bores have a twist that is relatively slow. Say 1:36 or 1:50. They were 1:48 twist in 45 and 50 caliber
