Thermodynamic properties of the Hubbard model on the anisotropic triangular lattice at half filling are calculated by the finite-temperature Lanczos method. The charge susceptibility exhibits clear signatures of a Mott metal-insulator transition. The metallic phase is characterized by a small charge susceptibility, large entropy, large renormalized quasiparticle mass, and large spin susceptibility. The fluctuating local magnetic moment in the metallic phase is large and comparable to that in the insulating phase. These bad metallic characteristics occur above a relatively low coherence temperature, as seen in organic charge transfer salts.
