Source for Finishing / Dress Washers

I get the "standard" sizes at my local home
improvement centers.  Both Lowe's and Home Depot have
them.  Usually they come in packages with a quantitiy
of 50.

However, I have never looked to see if they are
available with hole sizes as large as 3/8 inch.  You
have to remember that the hole size is only part of
the situation.  There has to be room for the nut that
holds the jack in place.  The small size round nuts
would probably work but the hex type nut probably
would be too large.

I've been trying -- without luck -- to locate a source
of what I think are called "finishing" or "dress"
washers. They're the thin, plated washers that fit
between a panel and the mounting nut for a
3/8-inch-diameter CW key jack. I'd like to find not
only the standard size, but some that have a bit more
shoulder width to cover an existing panel hole.
Standard zinc-plated washers are too thick and not
attractive. 
  
Does anyone know of a source for such hardware?
