During the second quarter of 2021, the Corporation sold $107 million of lower yielding FFELP student loan asset backed securities at a slight gain and reinvested the proceeds into higher yielding MBS. During the first quarter of 2021, the Corporation sold $51 million of lower yielding U.S. Treasury and Agency securities at a slight loss to take advantage of the steeper yield curve by reinvesting the proceeds into similar but higher yielding, longer duration securities.
During the second quarter of 2020, the Corporation sold $261 million of less liquid securities at a gain of $3 million, reinvesting the proceeds into more liquid securities in order to further improve portfolio liquidity. 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 third quarter of 2019, the Corporation made a one-time election to transfer municipal securities with an amortized cost of $692 million from HTM to AFS, as permitted by the adoption of ASU 2019-04 during the quarter. The Corporation sold shorter duration, lower yielding municipal securities that were included in the transfer for proceeds of $157 million at a gain of $3 million. Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2019, the Corporation sold $1.2 billion of taxable, floating rate asset backed securities and shorter duration MBS, CMBS, and CMOs Agency securities. The proceeds from both sales were utilized to pay down borrowings and to reinvest into higher yielding securities with slightly longer durations, repositioning the portfolio for a declining rate environment.
The Corporation also donated 42,039 shares of Visa Class B restricted shares to the Corporation's Charitable Remainder Trust during the second quarter of 2019, and the subsequent sale of those shares by the Trust resulted in an observable market price.
As a result, the Corporation wrote up its remaining 77,000 Visa Class B restricted shares to fair value. Based on the existing transfer restriction and the uncertainty of covered litigation, the shares were previously carried at a zero cost basis.
Investment securities with a carrying value of $2.3 billion and $2.1 billion at December 31, 2021 and 2020 respectively, were pledged to secure certain deposits or for other purposes.
Accrued interest receivable on HTM securities totaled $15 million and $14 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Accrued interest receivable on AFS securities totaled $9 million and $8 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Accrued interest receivable on both HTM and AFS securities is included in interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets. There was no interest income reversed for investments going into nonaccrual at December 31, 2021 or 2020.
A security is considered past due once it is 30 days past due under the terms of the agreement. At both December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Corporation had no past due HTM securities.
The allowance for credit losses on HTM securities was approximately $55,000 and $67,000 at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, attributable entirely to the Corporation's municipal securities, included in investment securities HTM, net, at amortized cost on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation also holds U.S. Treasury, municipal and 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 AFS 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 this impairment analysis include 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 security and industry specific economic conditions.
Based on the Corporation’s evaluation, management does not believe any unrealized losses at December 31, 2021 represent credit deterioration as these unrealized losses are primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and the current market conditions. The U.S. Treasury 3 year and 5 year rates increased by 80 bp and 90 bp, respectively, from December 31, 2020. 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 bank 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. The Corporation had FHLB stock of $82 million at both December 31, 2021 and 2020. The Corporation had Federal Reserve Bank stock of $87 million at both December 31, 2021 and 2020. Accrued interest receivable on FHLB stock totaled approximately $975,000 and $972,000 at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. There was no accrued interest receivable on Federal Reserve Bank stock at either December 31, 2021 or 2020. Accrued interest receivable on both FHLB stock and Federal Reserve Bank stock is included in interest receivable on the consolidated balance sheets.
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 and other mutual funds. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Corporation had equity securities with readily determinable fair values of $5 million and $2 million, respectively.
Equity securities without readily determinable fair values: The Corporation's portfolio of equity securities without readily determinable fair values primarily 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 acquired 996 Visa Class B restricted shares in 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 $14 million and $13 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
