are we using faith in knowing a mustard seed exists?

A mustard seed is very, very tiny. But once planted, it grows into a huge tree. Jesus said a little faith can have incredible results.
We don't need a lot of faith - just as much as a mustard seed - to provoke great results - because our God is an awesome God! We must believe in Him and not worry about what we can or can't do. God will not ask us to do more than we can.

You can look up mustard seeds in real time. Also, I think the French's website has pictures. But fyi, a mustard seed actually isn't a seed. It's a fungus. The "seed" (so called because it develops a solid outer shell) can grow to be the size of mid-size SUV. A single seed can yield up to 1400 bottles of French's mustard!

Well, that was written 2000 years ago, when mustard seeds were something common.
If He had said then to measure faith by a nano chip, probably He would have been crucified by being mental.

A mustard seed is very, very tiny. Faith like a mustard seed is very tiny, but can grow into a large plant (and yes the plant is very big).

Go back and read the passage about the mustard seed. It is not used as a measuring tool.

A mustard seed is really sort of like a sesame seed

You can find mustard seeds almost anywhere if you look. They're small and very tiny- but they grow to a large bush

Go to the supermarket and look at some mustard seed. It isn't rare.

Umm, hon, most people really have seen a mustard seed.
And btw, we have lots of faith in things we can't see. The chair you are sitting in requires a measure of faith from you every time you sit down in it. :)
