HAITH is valid in Collins, not in North America — 11 points
It depends on the list you play by. HAITH is in Collins, used in the UK and most of the world, but it is not in the North American lists — so in a US or Canadian game an opponent can challenge it off the board. Worth 11 points. Words with Friends does not accept it either.

What does HAITH mean in Scrabble?
interjection
Scotsarchaic
A Scots exclamation used to affirm a statement, equivalent to saying in faith.
Haith appears in older Scots dialogue and dialect writing as a mild oath tacked onto the front of a sentence for emphasis, much like indeed or upon my word in standard English. It carries no religious force by the time it turns up in print; it simply underlines whatever the speaker says next. The word has largely dropped out of everyday Scots speech.
