Numbered Letters III (Posted on 2012-07-20) Difficulty: 3 of 5
If each letter has a value (a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4 etc.) what words containing at least four letters have the same total letter value as their antonyms (also containing at least four letters)? What is the longest such word with this property?

*** Plurals, proper nouns, hyphens, spaces, acronyms and abbreviations are not allowed.

After trying several sets of antonyms, the best I could come up with was heat and cold, each being 34.
