The U.S. has never minted a copper 5 cent piece. All coins except for special nickels struck during WW2 are made of a nickel alloy. Yes, the alloy contains copper but not enough to affect the coin's color.
Your coin was either copper-plated by someone outside of the mint, or exposed to heat that discolored it. In any case that means it's a damaged coin worth face value only.
