First searched for "6 x 6" (with the quotes) and then selected the color, leaving only 48 options

Sometimes the bricks do have a number on the bottom as well.

@Malnaborg sadly this one does not🤪

Haha okay, well worth a try, or at least that is what i look for when in doubt O:-)

Here it is (keyword x-ray):

@Pikka thanks for your help. Just found it. But the numbers don’t match. The number on the back is definitely 88409. Also shocked at the prices.

The number on the back (88409) is just an alternative ID of the "Tile 2 x 2 with Groove". The other known IDs of the same (undecorated) tile are 3068, 1136 or 78814. This decorated tile appears in one set only, hence the high price.

@Pikka once again thanks for your help It is much appreciated

And if you didn't think of the keyword.
You know it's a decorated tile and 2x2 in size and the color.
Search for 'tile decorated "2x2"' and filter that result on the correct color
