There is NO Money in a bank vault, except for coins.
The amount of currency in a bank vault will vary massively from bank to bank. Normally banks try to have enough to cover all anticipated cash withdrawal needs of their customers, which varies according to how busy that particular bank and branch is, and time (for instance more will be needed on hand on Fridays when many people cash paychecks).
But curiously that currency, meaning paper dollar bills or "Federal Reserve Notes" are actually not considered "money" when they are sitting in a bank vault. They are only counted as money when they are circulating. Currency has no intrinsic value, it is only a way of keeping track of value - a "note", the same as an accounting entry in a bank ledger. When a dollar bill is sitting in the vault, the value is noted in the ledger, not the note itself.
Coins are another matter - they have an intrinsic value of their own.
So to answer the original question, there is no money in a bank vault, no matter how much currency is there, except for the value of the coins, which represents a rather small percentage of the banks assets.

Bank use money to make money. When you deposit money into your bank a portion of that goes into the vault as a reserve the rest of it is given out as loans. When a bank makes a loan for say a car that money eventually makes it to another bank. You give the money to the dealership then they put it in the bank. Their bank then puts some in the vault as a reserve and lends the rest of it out as loans.

Is a bank vault hermetically sealed and why or why not?
no it is not. Well, some are ... but it's dangerous, expensive, and silly. A bank vault is designed to keep money in and people out, making it hermetically sealed is overkill, especially if you get locked in.
What is paper money backed by?
Paper money is typically backed by the government that issues it, which guarantees the value of the currency. In the past, many countries pegged their currency to a specific amount of gold or silver, known as the gold standard, but most countries now operate on a fiat money system where the value of the currency is not backed by a physical commodity.
