TOZIE is valid in Collins, not in North America — 14 points
It depends on the list you play by. TOZIE 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 14 points. Words with Friends does not accept it either.

What does TOZIE mean in Scrabble?
noun
Scotsdialect
A thick woollen wrap or shawl, worn around the shoulders or head for warmth.
A tozie was a practical piece of cold-weather clothing in Scotland, heavy enough to keep out wind and rain on a walk to church or market. The word names the garment itself, not the wool it was woven from, and it belonged to everyday country dress rather than to finer clothing. It appears now chiefly in older regional writing and word lists, since the garment itself has largely gone out of use.
How TOZIE is used
