Thompson Center has no official published serial number list, but I can usually tell a general age by the model and serial number. The model is in most cases engraved on the barrel, ie Cherokee, Seneca, Hawken, New Englander, Renegade etc. and the serial number is stamped on the barrel itself or on the breech plug. You can also contact Thompson Center directly and they may be able to help.
Thompson Center is currently owned by Smith and Wesson holding corp.

300 dollars to me , if it is in great condition.
Being a 5 digit serial number puts it early in production , most likely early 80's. However the Hawken was not produced by Thompson Center in .36 caliber, they did make a drop in replacement barrel in .36, but they are very rare. I suspect you may have the Seneca model, this you can determine by measuring across the barrel, flat side to flat side. The Seneca will measure 13/16" across the flats. A Hawken will measure 15/16". The Seneca also has a patch box that is rounded towards the but vs. the Hawken being pointed towards the but. If it is a Seneca .36 in 95% + condition it could be worth in the $500 to 700 range, the Hawken with the .36 drop in barrel would be in the neighborhood of 450 +/-
