I have acquired a Nikon RF 3.5cm 3.5W-Nikkor.C Lens. What is the filter size. It looks to be about 20mm. Any ideas.

The old style Nikon RF 3.5cm f3.5 had no filter threads, maybe it took a slip on type filter.
the (starting in 1954) new style 3.5cm f3.5 Nikon RF lens took a 43mm sized filter.
 
Does the lens look like this one?

It definately has a iternal thread.
Any ideas ?
an internal thread does not necessarily mean it is for mounting a filter.
some internal threads are there to mount the lens module assembly and or label ring.

For the 1st version Nikon mount 3.5cm f 3.5 lens, no filter size is listed in Robert Rotoloni's Nikon Rangefinder book.
