TheWoWDBSearched like 10 corpses and found no coins, thought it was a % chance and I was unlucky.
Left the area and came back, 6 out of 6 bodies checked had coins. If this happens to you just fly away and come back. Weird.

Description
It may be too late for some of our fallen brothers and sisters, but it is not too late to give solace to their families. Every Wastewander carries with them a unique coin, signifying their status as a member of our group. If you find any of these coins, please bring them to me and I will make sure they are properly returned to their next of kin.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Before this quest
Taken from the quest's prerequisites.
- Search for Survivors
The bugs came from everywhere... There wasn't any time to react. Many of my friends died where they stood, while others tried to fight with our meager tools. I'm a coward. I fled in the commotion instead of trying to help. Now, here I am, out of food and water and too scared to look for survivors.
