All genuine Confederate coins are dated 1861 not 1862, you may have a Liberty Seated half dollar that is dated 1862, but it was not made by the C.S.A.
No, because no genuine 1862 Confederate half dollars exist. Any "Confederate half dollars" dated 1862 are either fantasy pieces or counterfeits. The CSA only struck 4 trial half dollars and these were dated 1861. By 1862 the New Orleans Mint had been recaptured by the Union.
In the Battle of Galveston of 1862, 400 Union troops had surrendered to the Confederate forces and were captured, as well as one gunboat being captured and another destroyed. However, 26 Confederate forces had been killed and 117 wounded. It is generally seen that the Confederate forces won the Battle of Galveston in 1862.
