It means I am sincerely yours, or I am truly yours. In other words I am telling the truth. There is a story that it comes from the Greek 'sine' and 'cere', which means 'without wax' referring to statues that were once made, of which the fake ones were filoled with wax, whereas the real ones were 'without wax'. Is this true? I don't know but it's a good story to tell students (false etymology?).
