Where to buy locking nut?

I was installing my short shifter and I accidentally dropped the locking nut for the shift knob down the hole. Does anyone know where I can buy a new one?

I like how it looks and how low it is without the nut, but I don't like the fact that the gear number pattern isn't centered but rather crooked looking. Is it possible to center it without the nut and if so how?
