Is there a such thing as a polarized C1 connector? (lemm.ee)

I found a radio from 2003 that was missing a power cord, and I first thought it needed a polarized C7 power cord, but it won't fit at all. Looking at it more closely, it looks like a polarized C2 connector, but it's also locking? I tried searching online but I couldn't find anything for the C1/C2 connectors that's polarized, not even considering the locking aspect. Is this something anyone is familiar with? It's not a high end or particularly old radio or anything.

Here is a link to a picture, I wasn't able to upload it to lemmy directly.

I'm in the US, I'd give you the manufacturer but I didn't take a picture of it; I left it at home.

It seems like it was made for the north American market, based on the writing on the information label, and that it runs on 120vac.

I'll try searching by manufacturer but I'm not optimistic since it seems like an obscure one, like a cheap knockoff brand. I suppose it could be re-badged, I'll search online if i can see the same model and go from there.
