Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT

ἀντιμισθία [page 48] No instance of this Pauline word ( Rom_1:27 , 2Co_6:18 ) seems as yet to have been found outside Christian literature. This, however, may be wholly accidental; and there is certainly nothing in the word itself to exclude it from the ordinary terminology of the day : see for further examples of the same kind Nδgeli p. 50 ff.
