Vintage Microphone Connector to 1/4 Inch Cable question.

I have a vintage Electro-Voice 605 (500 Ohm) microphone that I would like to use.

I was wondering what connector that this microphone uses? I have attached a photo of the connector on the bottom of the mic. The connector has only two holes with the numbers 1 and 2 marked next to them.

I have a couple of vintage mics that I have put a 1/4 Inch Cable adapter on them and they work great. I was wondering what connector/adapter I would need to do the same with this mic?

Thanks! IMG_1848.jpeg
 
It looks like an old Amphenol connector. They have made LOTS of different connectors over the years. This might be close, but it would be hard to tell without trying one.

I have a 3 prong Amphenol connector on an old Shure 55 mic from the late 50s. I'm glad the cable never got lost, but then, the mic really doesn't sound too good anymore.
