IIRC --list-keys --with-colons also shows the trust values - the format
is easily machine-parseable, so you could write some easy scripts to
display trust values for specific keys.

And (since you're saying you're a newbie): don't forget to run gpg
--update-trustdb from time to time, so you can assign owner trust values
to the imported keys (read up on the difference key trust <-> owner
trust if that's new for you, too).
