Your numbers conflict, why don't you simply provide the link to the photo by copying and pasting the link?

It's 651281 alright. The problem is, it is identified as "scepter quartz" and even though the mineral list for the locality lists three varieties of quartz, including "rock crystal" quartz,"scepter quartz" is not included in the list - the photo can not be found from the site page. Mindat tends to treat these varieties as distinct minerals, which tends to mess up the system, particularly for quartz.

Ko,

The Photo can indeed be seen, seen in the gallery, from the site page right on up to Saarland as a whole (I assume at the level of Germany as well). There will be no photo icon for it unless your image is identified as one of the listed minerals on that locality page. There are Quartz varieties, but not the variety you labeled your image. Listing just "Quartz" won't bring in a photo icon for it either.

Ko: it's a database bug.

Simply add "sceptre quartz" with identification method "visual identification", then it will be listed.
