script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function() if game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.Potatoes.Value == 6 then game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.Cash.Value = game.Players.LocalPlayer.leaderstats.Cash.Value +10 end end)

First, make this a server script, it won't work if it's a local script. (I also did getplayerfromcharacter because you cant get a localplayer from a server script.)
Second, use waitforchild just in case the leaderstats hasn't loaded yet!
edited code:
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(
function(hit)
local Player = game.Players.GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
if Player:WaitForChild("leaderstats"):WaitForChild("Potatoes").Value == 6 then
Player.leaderstats.Cash.Value = Player.leaderstats.Cash.Value + 10
end
end
)
Accept answer if it works.

local currencyName = "Cash" game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) local folder = Instance.new("Folder") folder.Name = ("leaderstats") folder.Parent = player local currency = Instance.new("IntValue") currency.Name = currencyName currency.Parent = folder local currency = Instance.new("IntValue") currency.Name = ("Potatoes") currency.Parent = folder end) Cats767_99 -68 — 4y
