Depends on how you write the submission form. If you select "reholder" and the holder isn't tampered with, they take the 10 it originally is and print a new label and slab it.
If you select "review" and put a much lower grade in than the current grade, they are supposed to lower the grade. That would trigger the guarantee, and PSA would have to figure out the difference in values and reimburse you the difference. That's what I've talked about most recently in the T206 set thread that's ending tonight. Many of those 10s would be 7.5s or worse right now.

When I asked about a couple cards I thought were undergraded SGC said that the grade was cumulative. So while the ones I had were pretty nice as far as corners went and not bad for centering, they each had a small flaw or a couple flaws that reduced it to a lower grade. One I thought had a very generous grade when I really looked closely, had no other flaws. Just a light crease and some corner wear. It's VG, while the nicer looking card - well centered with better corners and a light erasure on the back is also VG. One looks better than that one doesn't.
