    Peter Minuit is known for purchasing Manhattan Island for the Dutch from the local Native Americans in 1626. According to legend, Manhattan was purchased for $24 worth of trinkets, but there is no historical evidence that beads were used. The historical records stated that Manhattan was purchased for the "value of 60 guilders" in goods, an amount worth $1,050 in 2015 dollars.
