"Washington" button ID help

I dug this button today at my farm spot. The farm was originally part of a late 1700's plantation property, and I've found lots of CW relics here.
Any ideas on this button?
15mm flat button has a back mark with an Eagle and "Washington". There is still a shank and small bit of gold gilt on it.
The eagle faces left.
Is "Washington" a button maker, or does it mean George Washington?
Any info on this one would be greatly appreciated. Age?
Thanks,
MM

RD,
The front is flatter than my high school sweetheart. Nothing there.

With the help of Nana finding this old TN link, and PBK's ID, I think we can call this one solved.
