If made in US where and when and who made them?
There are no 1862 Confederate half dollars. The few genuine ones are all 1861.
Many of the modern fakes come from China. No way to know exactly who, when, where, only why is known. To make money.
Look, there are literally thousands of ways it could have happened, but none of them involve the mint! I don't know about anyone else but I just...

Sorry, I missed that this was your first post, welcome!
I believe you may be correct on the first coin, a filled die. The second one is just damaged though. Someone pressed other coins into it. One...
Yup, I think I know who this seller is, lots of complaints. You can collect any way you want, but think about what nice coins you could have...
