get_tree().get_root().get_node("Spatial/node1/node2").get("variable")
The other way is by adding the scenes in [project settings] > [AutoLoad]
so, if you adds level 1, and name it to level1, then you can get access to it like:
level1.get_node("node1").get("coins_variable")

You can use an autoloaded script to save/share state between scenes. See Singletons (AutoLoad) — Godot Engine (3.1) documentation in English for getting it set up.
Here is a minimal use case outline:
# GameState.tscn
var coins_collected = 0
Then in your level scene (I don’t know how you are detecting when a coin is collected, but just move this to wherever that might be)
# Level.tscn
func _on_coin_collected():
GameState.coins_collected += 1
Then in your menu scene:
# Menu.tscn
func _ready():
$CoinsLabel.text = str(GameState.coins_collected)
hi why do you put dollar sign in front of the code?
Necessary?

Assuming the node that the script is attached to has a child node called CoinsLabel, instead of using get_node("CoinsLabel"), you can use the $ short-hand and just reference it as $CoinsLabel

I have founded a good Video to your question

You need to understand and make use of signals. We need to make our scenes independent of outside scenes. Your scene should work stand-alone for testing purposes. Have a look at my tutorial here to get a solid understanding of this topic: Signals in Godot
