During the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation sold $281 million of primarily prepayment sensitive mortgage-related securities at a gain of $6 million. Additionally, in February 2020, the Corporation sold $84 million of certain securities acquired in the First Staunton acquisition that did not fit the parameters of the Corporation's current investment strategy.
During the first quarter of 2019, the Corporation sold $131 million of taxable ABS, MBS, and CMO securities, with the proceeds utilized to pay down borrowings.
Investment securities with a carrying value of approximately $2.1 billion and $2.6 billion at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, were pledged to secure certain deposits or for other purposes as required or permitted by law.
At March 31, 2020, accrued interest receivable on held to maturity and available for sale securities totaled $14 million and $10 million, respectively, both which are included in interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. There was no interest income reversed for investments going into nonaccrual.
A security is considered past due once it is 30 days contractually past due under the terms of the agreement. At March 31, 2020, the Corporation had no past due held to maturity securities.

The allowance for credit losses on held to maturity securities was approximately $61,000 at March 31, 2020, attributable entirely to the Corporation's municipal securities, included in investment securities held to maturity, net, at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation also holds U.S. Treasury and residential mortgage-related securities issued by the U.S. government or a GSE which are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and, as a result, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded related to these securities.

The Corporation reviews the available for sale investment securities portfolio on a quarterly basis to monitor its credit exposure. A determination as to whether a security’s decline in fair value is the result of credit risk takes into consideration numerous factors and the relative significance of any single factor can vary by security. Some factors the Corporation may consider in the impairment analysis includes the extent to which the security has been in an unrealized loss position, the change in security rating, financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, as well as the security and industry specific economic conditions.
Based on the Corporation’s evaluation, management does not believe any available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2020 represent credit deterioration as these unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and the current market conditions. The unrealized losses reported for municipal securities at March 31, 2020 pertain to various state and local political subdivisions and school districts, and have declined due to the decrease in overall
interest rates. The unrealized losses at March 31, 2020 for mortgage-related securities have also declined due to the decrease in overall interest rates. The U.S. Treasury 3 year and 5 year rates decreased by 133 bp and 132 bp, respectively, from December 31, 2019. The Corporation does not intend to sell nor does it believe that it will be required to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position before recovery of their amortized cost basis.
FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank stocks: The Corporation is required to maintain Federal Reserve Bank stock and FHLB stock as a member of both the Federal Reserve System and the FHLB, and in amounts as required by these institutions. These equity securities are “restricted” in that they can only be sold back to the respective institutions or another member institution at par. Therefore, they are less liquid than other marketable equity securities and their fair value is equal to amortized cost. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Corporation had FHLB stock of $145 million and $149 million, respectively. The Corporation had Federal Reserve Bank stock of $78 million at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Equity Securities
Equity securities with readily determinable fair values: The Corporation's portfolio of equity securities with readily determinable fair values is primarily comprised of CRA Qualified Investment mutual funds. At both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Corporation had equity securities with readily determinable fair values of $2 million.
Equity securities without readily determinable fair values: The Corporation's portfolio of equity securities without readily determinable fair values consists of 77,996 Visa Class B restricted shares, 77,000 of which the Corporation received in 2008 as part of Visa's initial public offering and carried at fair value after the Corporation donated 42,039 Visa Class B restricted shares to the Corporation's Charitable Remainder Trust during the second quarter of 2019, with the subsequent sale of those shares resulting in an observable market price after the shares were previously carried at a zero cost basis. During the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation also acquired 996 Visa Class B restricted shares from the acquisition of First Staunton, and those shares are carried at a zero cost basis due to the lack of an observable market price since the time of acquisition. The Corporation had equity securities without readily determinable fair values of $13 million at both March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
