Can you stick a ruler on it and read the size?
If other responses are slow coming you might ask over at "The Hearth" forum...a separate unrelated group of mostly "wood-burner types"
Hope this helps!

There is only handful of common bolt sizes , based on use I would guess probably a 5/16ths. Might be 1/4 which is a little smaller.
Each bolt size typically has a common coarse and fine thread pitch. For 1/4 it's 20 and 28. For 5/16ths it's 18 and 24.
The local hardware store I work at sells individually, many do. It might cost you a whopping 60 cents to buy all four nuts. If you post a picture with something like a quarter next to it I might be able to help you identify it better.
