Microscope cover slide glass cut to size?
Or go to the Nikon Historic Society site (www.nikonhs.org) and pose the question there. Someone like Doug Napier who posts as Dugwerks will likely be able to give you good advice.

i purchased the camera from doug recently /
i have heard the microscope slide idea before .
was hopeing for a thin coated optical glass of high quality .
think i have a lead online from a glass optics shop here in ny .
they may not be willing to sell or cut such a small section.
