a value created by the server cant be changed by a local script(the client). you'll need a remote event on line 9.

You would need to use a remote event and local script. Your script is editing the value from the clients side, so anything changed from the server side would reset the change. So put a remote event in replicated storage. Here is the local script:

local price = 2400

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:connect(function(click)
    local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
    if player.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Coins").Value >= price.Value then
game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent:FireServer()

    end
end)

This server script goes in server script service:

game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)
local char = plr.Character
char.UpperTorso.Position = Vector3.new(85.64, 10.728, 16.66)
    local coins =   plr.leaderstats:FindFirstChild("Coins")
    coins.Value = coins.Value - 2400
end)

:connect is deprecated use :Connect

also line 2 and 4 of the server script is wrong, you used player.Character instead of plr.Character
