Default RE: NACA numbering scheme

I'm guessing that the 2R1 wasn't a mathematically calculated shape like the 4 and 5 digit series are. If I'm right it would just be an envelope shape that is altered for thickness. Other than that little gem I don't really know since I've never heard of the 2R1 airfoil.
