The wallet is a paper wallet generated from https://www.bitaddress.org. If you go through their initialization process abd then select "paper wallet" you can see an option to password protect the generated wallet with BIP38. That will generate a public key and an encrypted private key. The private key has to be combined with the password to generate the actual unencrypted private key which will work on the network.

What I have right now is the public key along with the encrypted private key.
