"Kinsan Ginsan" (きんさんぎんさん), was the affectionate name of Japanese identical twin sisters from Nagoya, widely known for their longevity, and for being the oldest living twins. Their full names were Kin Narita (成田 きん, Narita Kin, August 1, 1892 – January 23, 2000) and Gin Kanie (蟹江 ぎん, Kanie Gin, August 1, 1892 – February 28, 2001). Their maiden name was Yano (矢野). Their names literally translated from Japanese to English mean "Gold" and "Silver". Their health and vitality, despite being over 100 years old, was said to be "an ideal form of living in your sunset years", and they became national celebrities in Japan. They lived to ages 107 and 108.
