The US has always used copper in most of its coins. Silver and gold coins had at least 10% copper in them to make the alloy hard enough to resist wear. Large cents were made of pure copper, and bronze cents were 95% copper. Even the lowly "nickel" is actually 3/4 copper.

What is added to make coins minted coins?
ALL coins are "minted" coins because they're made at a mint.They are never pure silver or gold. US silver coins used to be 90% silver with some 10% copper added to make them harder so they wouldn't wear out as quickly.Now coins like quarters or dimes are clad. That means they are like a sandwich. They have a layer of copper and nickel on the top and bottom, and copper in the middle. If you look at the side of a quarter, you can see the copper.
What year did US dimes and quarters begin using copper as a filler?
Copper has never been used as a "filler". U.S. silver coins dated 1964 and earlier are made of an alloy containing 10% copper and 90% silver. Copper is necessary to harden the coins to prevent excessive wear. By itself silver is so soft that the coins would have worn out so quickly as to be impractical for daily use.
