Sounds like a CEE 7/7 to me.

IEC power cord with 2 round pin mains plug
Maybe a German mains lead. The plug itself is almost round, with 2
round pins. There are earthing cotnacts on the sides of the plug body IEC power cord with mains plug 2 straight blades in a

Almsot certainly
a UK (BS1363) mains plug. The 'blades;' should be
quite thich rectanguar pins, with the earth pin larger in all 3
dimensions to the others. The fuse is a 1" long cartridge fuse either
inside the plug 9if it's not moulded to the cable) or under in a holder
on the pin face of the plug. Do you want them?
If not, does ANYBODY want that kind of stuff? (There is a metric
buttload of stuff that I can't even get to until some stuff starts
leaving. (Y'know those puzzles with square pieces with numbers on them,
or different shaped rectangles, and one unoccupied square? - I need to
clear that "unoccupied" square!)) I would prefer to not have to pay much
postage nor dump fees to get rid of it.
If someone else doesn't need them for a specific purpose, I could always
use stuff such as this for taking photos for Wikipedia. It is incredibly
difficult to create standard looking sets of photos for various plugs and
sockets.
For that fact, does anyone happen to have a copy of one of the earlier IEC
320 standard documents? I'd still like to create proper dimensional
drawings for the C3 and C11 couplers.
