Dear Bill, You should look in local auctions like Stan. At least there is a chance you may find a real piece of antique jade. However becareful of some auction houses that import fake chinese antiques from China to auction. I know one auction house that sells lots of fake serpentine carvings and tomb pottery like that disc as ancient jade for thousands and they keep telling their customers that they were from old collection or from tomb robbers, but actually they bought them from places like Hong Kong and China. It is good to learn from Anita how they actually produce such fakes. The other way is to watch cctv on satellite tv and watch how the chinese experts tell the real from the fake. So make sure you find a reliable antique auctioneer and equipt your self with lots of know how.
