You are trying to set the object "cash" to a new value, when you're wanting to set the value of its property.

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    hit.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
    local plr = hit.Parent.PlayerLocation.Value
    local cash = plr.leaderstats.Cash
    cash.Value = cash.Value + 5
end)

You are trying to access the cash value instance, not the value itself. Put a ".value" after Cash.

script.Parent.Touched:connect(function(hit)
    hit.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
    local plr = hit.Parent.PlayerLocation.Value
    local cash = plr.leaderstats.Cash
    cash.Value = cash.Value + 5
end)
