Can't find the type for Syracuse but the type was used in Menainon (also in Sicily - look at Wildwinds) during the 3rd century BC on base metal coinage coinage.
Would agree with 'zxcccxz' on overcleaned, probably used a brass brush as well creating that surface.
With the type minted in several places would not consider it as very unusual and 'rare' is a term thrown around by far too many sellers.
