What did you do?
Open Browse Data on table with field of DATE type that contains valid date information.
Hit Control-A to highlight all records
Right-click and choose Copy or Copy with Headers
What did you expect to see?
When pasted anywhere, I expected to see the Date information from each record

Nothing, it inserted tabs to separate the field, but no actual field data.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in Browse Data with a table containing a DATE field, then trace the Copy and Copy with Headers actions and their clipboard output. Done means pasting the selection includes each date value, with headers preserved when requested, on the reported Windows and SQLite versions.
