Because Tokens is an IntValue(Instance). To get the value of the IntValue do; plrLeader.Tokens.Value.

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
    if hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
        local player = game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        local plrLeader = player.leaderstats
        plrLeader.Tokens.Value = plrLeader.Tokens.Value + 1 
    end
end)

you can do plrLeader.Tokens.Value += 1 instead of plrLeader.Tokens.Value = plrLeader.Tokens.Value + 1 YAYYYYUGUY 0 — 3y
