Unable to find files which have been in the folder one minute in Mac's Zsh

I need to find files which have been in the folder Wastebasket exactly one minute. The files have been moved all over my computer to the folder.

I run the following unsuccessfully

find -atime n1m .

I get all my files in the directory by the command, even ones which I just created. It seems that the option -atime is not correct.

How can you find files which access time is one minute?

    find -amin 1

    n is just a variable that you replace with a number.

    +n eg +1 means greater
    n eg 1 means exactly
    -n eg -1 means less than
