The Thopson center arms is a young gun manufacturer so all of their products could be bought back in the 70's and 80's. This rifle is not a super rare gun many were made after the movie "Jeramiah Johnson" staring Robert Redford. I would price it at mabey $250-$375 above what you paid for it. Unlike the modern In-line muzzle loader it will not lose value it will only gain just like a original Bear hunting Recurve.
$5.99 It's not a real Hawken with that serial number.
No published sn data known.
100-400 USD
Value would depend on the model ( Hawken, Renegade, Black Diamond, system one etc) and condition. I can help if I know the model, if you have trouble identifying the model try the on line auctions like gunbroker and auction arms, you can compare your gun to listings there to get a model and selling price information too.
