Can anyone help me with the correct English translation of "scudo ogivale centinato" found in the description of the coat of arms of Pope Paul II (https://www.papalartifacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Co... "Il suo stemma è composto da un leone entro uno scudo ogivale centinato". No other context I'm afraid. Thanks in advance.

: ogival isn't necessarily arched (nor centered)

Thank you, maybe you are right. However, I found 'centina' to be centre.

: But you can't say "ogival shaped" - it's a tautology.
