qsh find command -size +20M

I am having an issue with this:
find . -type f -size +20M -exec ls -l {} \; | awk '{ print $9 "," $5 ","
$6"/"$7"/"$8 }' > /rob/bigfiles2.csv
find: 001-2190 The trailing character +20M for option -size is not
valid.
$

Searching a few man pages doesn't show it as wrong.
Is this one of those obscure things where the problem isn't with the +20M
but it's really with something way after that?
