Is it true, its only money, and did I make a good deal

I have attained my first coin auction this past week. The collection was from an local estate. The coins smelled like they were kept in the basement for 50 years or so. The auction was with a local auction house. I spent $1480 on coins and $461 in grading fees. I was able to obtain an 1883 CC GSA coin, and 1880 CC Morgan silver dollar, and a 1993 Bill of Rights 3 coin set. I won several 1960s proof sets and some common dated Morgan Dollars. I have sent many to NGC for grading. My fear is that I won cleaned coins or damaged coins. I buy modern dated coins that have been graded so that I don?t have to fear getting ripped off. Well, I went out on a limb. My wife has looked over the coins and told me that I was a sucker. I thought I didn't over paid nor did I feel that I under paid for the coins. Only NGC will tell the tail with the grading results.
