The antimisma, 1617/1600, is the amount by which 11/10 exceeds 160/147. It is the difference between the ptolemisma (100/99) and the septimal diesis (49/48), making it an anti-ptolemisma, or anti-misma. However, that is not the origin of the name. In fact, it is named after Antimo Liberati, because his birth year of 1617 is the numerator of this comma.
A stack of two septimal tritones (7/5) and an undecimal superfourth (11/8) is an antimisma above a perfect eleventh (8/3). While this leads to an essentially tempered chord of 1/1-7/5-49/25-8/3, it's rather far-flung.
