Well there ya go, learn something new everyday. So it's not a lead core per say, just that there are some lead lumps that are exposed. Makes sense...
I can't answer other to say the weight of a base metal coin wouldn't matter in this case, there would be no reason I can think of to have a lead...
I believe your coin is made of bronze. For it to have any center other than the surrounding base metal would be very odd unless we are talking...

Someone mixed up the Kingdom of Commagene with the Seleucid empire. The two were not contemporaneous. It should be SELEUKID KINGS of SYRIA...
