Pearce has led conservation work on many of the most famous coin hoards of recent years, including the
Watlington Hoard, Tetbury Hoard, Yeovil Roman Hoard,
Lenborough Hoard, and
Seaton Down Hoard. Most famously, she has worked on the
Frome Hoard. Due to the large number of coin hoards discovered needing preliminary conservation at the
British Museum, Pearce has changed metal conservation processes in order to manage the large volume of coins, particularly Roman coins. Pearce is the conservator for excavations at
Sidon conducted by the
British Museum and the Lebanese Department of Antiquities. She works as a small finds and site conservator on a number of excavations including the sites of
Kamenica,
Butrint, and
Apollonia in
Albania, and the sites of Kawa and the Northern Dongala Reach in
Sudan. == Publications ==
