Any piece of copper heated will do the same thing. When heated, the colored coating on the copper is called "scale," and consists of a thin layer of copper oxide on the surface of the copper. Depending on the thickness of the layer and its temperature, the scale can be some very interesting colors, such as red, blue, brown, and pink.
